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!

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.

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

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

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!

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

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!!!

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

What's your reaction to the Huskers' switch to rugby-style punting?

I do not care HOW the punting is done. Only that it leads to WINS.

If something is broken, what does it hurt to try something different. Insanity- Doing the same thing and expecting a different result.

I like this style of punting. With the roll-out, it keeps the defense honest by keeping them in position in case of runs/throws by the punter.

Anything less than a drop kick just isn't trying. Additionally, NU had a punter who averaged 44 yards a kick and he had to transfer for a player to be named later. Maybe get the rugby guy in and set in place before upending what would have been a solid punting game.

Too much hassle (200 miles away) for an unknown event.

The event is a non-starter compared to the structure of actual plays and the support of young men working to find their place on the team.

If I want to see a carnival or a faire I'll go see one. This change shows fear of being a competitor on the part of Rhule and NU Athletics. It's embarrassing.

Losing the best recruiting tool of the spring and losing the money it would bring in is not smart in my opinion.

It's not a game. This was our tradition. Not a good decision on Rhule's part.
