The greatest finish in college football history, The Big Game, Cal - Stanford in 1982 (includes the John Elway drive for Stanford for the go ahead score just before the AMAZING final play of the game).

University of Colorado at Michigan back in 1994

With 6 seconds left in the game CU QB Kordell Stewart throws a 70 yard 'Hail Mary' into the endzone that gets tipped up into the air by Colorado WR Blake Anderson and gathered in by Michael Westbrook for TD and a miracle 27 - 26 victory over the Wolverines.

This one never gets old!

I was watching this game LIVE in our entertainment room. When Westbrook made the catch I jumped up and yelled "TOUCHDOWN!" and our cat 'Rocky' went running out of the room so fast he was a blur.

The Texas high school game with the great finish was in 1994.

Wow!

Even more fun than watching that incredible finish is listening to the announcers.

"Bingo Bango, Bongo"

"Dad Gummit, thata way to go."

"They're gonna win, Break out the Oreos"

"He scored, Good God Almighty!"

"24 Seconds left, I'm gonna wet my britches"

"Oh my Gosh, no. God Bless those kids. I am sick, I'm gonna throw up."

Harvard-Yale 1968. Now that was a game. Harvard was down 16 with 42 seconds left and came back to tie the game with no time remaining. (No overtime in those days.)
