I was there and it looked better in person, with the intense wind. He just threw his hand up there and somehow caught it without really looking!

JT Skarda

The ball was way high, and behind him a bit. Plus he was in traffic, which makes it pretty hairy.. And to top it off, he scored. Phenomenal.

Watch for yourself

Phil Wojtalewicz

There's been none better in Husker history (IMHO).

Paul Billesbach

He ran a great route, jumped and had full extension just to reach the ball, caught and secured the ball and then accelerated into the endzone untouched. A very remarkable catch, with 4 defenders cover

Tay Thomsen

Because, he scored onthe play as well.

Janet Eckard

Lets see, the leap higher than I am tall, the fingertip grab out of the air, the stride thru the whole play, it doesn't get any better!

John Dixson

it was a awesome catch in the open when he knew he was surrounded by defenders

There's been a few others that rival this one. Anybody remember Johnny Mitchell's one-handed catch?

Cuz this is America!

It was awesome, but... not the very best.

Rich Crotty

The Catch in 1997 by Matt Davidson will rank as the #1 all time Husker Catch.. it won the 5th National Championship!

Harley Morrissey

Good catch but not the great even this Saturday saw several that were better.

Rick Redfield

Remember Scott Frost to Shevin Wiggins to Matt Davison?

Bob Crockford

As great as it was, others have also made great catches. Just want to say, though, when it was caught, I was, totally, impressed and went nuts!! :) I do believe, it was the greatest by a Husker!!!

Larry Schucht

Davison's catch was better and meant more at the time. That's #1.

NU needs a freshman to have a big time impact. Hopefully this is the one.

I've given up any hope of anyone being an impact player until they prove they can actually perform. Too many "BUSTS", including the team, overall.

Roland St.Denis

Having watched him several times now, he needs to develop physically, and even more importantly, must focus on the mental game. He has too many lapses at the high school level. That will be magnified in the B1G

John Hoie

The only recent freshman I thought would be an impact player was Raiola. Barney was a pleasant surprise.

Why not... at least we can hope during the off-season. We are Nebraskans after all.

Michael Hoffart

Next season would be the season to do it. Pretty good set up schedule wise and we SHOULD have the talent to make it happen.

James Key

At least 8 Wins if no glaring issues.

A B

1. look at MR history. 2. Look at how MR's aggressiveness at improving coaching and roster. 3. the team has been learning how to win and we are positioned for a break through. 4. Dylan Raiola!!!

David Dahlkoetter

Better depth. Offensive line needs to improve and will Defense looks awesome. Qb play will be better. Better widouts.

James McDermott

The schedule favors the huskers. The team seems to finally have the finishing attitude

Mike O

Yes. In fact, NU will win 11 games next year. But 3 of the wins will be moral victories. Final record: 8 wins, 3 moral victories, 2 losses.

I can't do it! I can't say it. Husker fans have been burned too many times. PROVE IT FIRST! GBR!

Isaiah Skrdla

We replaced 3 coordinators and basically lost our d-line. I haven’t seen any evidence that our o-line will be good next year. We also lost most of our running back room. We’re probably not going to be much better next year than this year.

Dave Levesque

I've been let down too many times.

Roger Shriver

If Coach Ruhl had made more changes after year 1 (OC, special teams) I would be more optimistic for year 3. But after three games, extra practices, and a bowl game (barely) this year, I haven't seen much to make me think things will be that much better next year.
