Eric Crouch game winning TD catch against Oklahoma (2001)

[BigShotMelch]

Was this filmed with a CORNCOB?

[lookadrunk]

did he say thunder cock?

[huskermaniac28]

thunder collins.

I was working at the OU Health Science Center in OKC and attended a student viewing of the game (complete with beer) in the Student Center. I was an incognito Nebraska fan surrounded by OU alumni, fans, staff, and faculty. At one point when OU tried a similar play I hugged the guy next to me with tears of joy in my eyes, and tears of pain in his. My secret identity was still secure.

But on this play all simblance of Soonerism was cast aside as I - alone - cheered with both arms raised. GBR

[BrodMan3000]

it looked like the cops were after him

[6400az]

You just gotta wonder why this guy Crouch did'nt play in the NFL. It's a shame since you just can't teach that kind of speed. The man can catch the ball too, why not convert him into a receiver like Matt Jones.

[wesia4lia]

he did play for a lil bit

[wesia4lia]

he played for the packers for a lil while'

then he went to play for canada football

they had him as 4th string QB

lol i would have crouch 1st string no matter what

[ES992]

Guess Canadians don't like the color Red so much. *cough Soviets cough* :P

[panicfan966]

I was 7 rows up from the field on about the 5 yard line in the student section at this game.. By far the biggest play at memorial in my 5 years down there...So glad Bo is at the reigns of the program..we will be a legitimate contender on the national level soon..

[soonerfan4ever14]

good game

[SaltySam43]

Black 41 Flash Reverse. How ridiculous is it that I know what the play was?

[BlaqueSherts]

all true husker fans should know the name of that play ;)

[afghanboy213]

ur not a "true" husker fan if u don't know that play.

[NEBRASKACOMET]

eh, you are not a true husker fan if you weren't there

[huskermaniac28]

i wasnt there. i can assure you i am a true husker fan. i know more about NU football from my parents' younger years than they do. quite a bit more, actually. and i have NEVER been to a nebraska game. im going to the baylor game this year tho

[NEBRASKACOMET]

haha... its ok... theres only 85,000+ seats. i wish there was a million lol

[huskermaniac28]

haha yeah well i only lived in nebraska until i was 5, and then we moved to CU country lol and then to texas, so ive never been able to go to a game.

[HtwnRcktsCO2]

ya i lived in Oklahoma till i was 5, then moved to Texas, so i have the same problem

[briant420]

I respectfully disagree. I was born and raised in Louisiana, but my dad was from Beatrice and I was a Husker fan from the word go.

[americanhellcatf6]

@NEBRASKACOMET That's not really true. There are many Husker fans like me who don't live in Nebraska and have never been to a NU game because we live on the east coast. But I have followed NU football for 30 or more years and there are Husker fans all over America which makes Husker Nation strong on gameday! It is just so hard to get to a game when every home game is sold out but that is what makes Husker football great.

[Hendubh]

Stuntz went to St. Albert, and was amazing there but i had never seen him play better then that pass

[patrickjohn84]

I'll never forget this play

[tylerstudly12]

that big game that we won. fricken awsome play

[omahaplayhousetv]

that was an amazing play. it was incredible. i swear the stadium shook.

[ExposingAgendas]

Just another day at the office whoopin' on Sooner ass before lunch.

[learningisfun22]

i was there and i remember tht play like it was yesterday

[sincityguy]

That was a great win for Nebraska, but a sad day for OU fans, as quarterback Jason White tore his knee in the first half and was out for the rest of the season.

[huskerzfan1221]

this is a play for us husker fans to enjoy. go bash nebraska somewhere it's permitted. :)

[Golfx2000]

that one of the best plays, by the way Eric Crouch and Mike Stuntz are both incredible QB's

[Luckyboys4080]

yeah and now kansas might be goin to a national championship...make me sick.

[dillpnizdaman]

to all u young kids thats how it always used to be good old nebraska vs oklahma in the big 12 game/

[afluitt38]

Not to take anything away from the play (it was incredible), but it wasn't the game-winning score. Nebraska was already up 13-10 and shut Oklahoma out the rest of the way.

[oos96]

ahhh the good old days

[hostiledefense]

Huskers beat the Sooners again.

[ballsthatclank]

Haven't beaten the Sooners since.

[24Lancelot]

They also haven't lost the last 4 bowls games, either. Your point?

[ballsthatclank]

Nebraska hasn't been to 4 BCS bowls.

[24Lancelot]

Very few teams have.

Is it proud to say, "we've been to 4 BCS bowls! More than anybody else...granted, we haven't won any of them, tho"?

[ballsthatclank]

How did Nebraska's game against Miami go that year?

[24Lancelot]

They lost, but better to be in the championship game than not, wouldn't you say?

[24Lancelot]

Yeah, I thought that'd shut you up.

[ballsthatclank]

Nebraska sucks.

[24Lancelot]

And you swallow.

[ReveretheHood]

Well, now Oklahoma knows what it's like to be embarassed in a national title game. Fun huh? Boomer Sooners!

[jlfahrer]

How's Miami doing now? We're just a defensive turnaround away from being a serious threat.

[ctown614]

yep that's really true cant wait a couple more years till they play tha buckeye's it's gonna be an awesome 2 games 2 watch

[mcoltrane5]

and an offensive turnaround... and a speacial teams turnaround... wait. That means you still have to turn around your entire program. Good luck with that!

[jlfahrer]

Hey dumbass. Our offense was ranked 11th overall last season and is on solid ground as Watson was retained. And the Special Teams were solid. And Pelini turned our mediocre '02 defense into a top 10 defense in '03. Callahan did an excellent job recruiting, so Bo's inherited some pretty solid talent.

[mcoltrane5]

Ah, I thought you were a Miami fan. Something got lost in translation.

[jlfahrer]

Oh sorry man. I can see how that confused you. I just replied to a Miami fan when I made my first post.

[2masterofpuppets2]

ya we will change a lot and then will kick your ass, plus whose horn are you blowing, miami sucks balls.

[mcoltrane5]

read the above post. There was confusion. I'm a Husker fan.

[dillster31i]

Crouch is like the fastest white guy ever.

[ballsthatclank]

OU can't win them all.

They come close.

[965567greg]

Big Red BABY!

[jasonth13]

Fuck OU.

[NUBlackshirts07]

Defensive struggle, but Nebraska had a few more playmakers than Oklahoma. Great game, one for the books.

[JaysHuskers]

First of all the huskers won that game and nobody can change it.  Because we are the best fans in the nation we can't talk smack. I don't think so.

[Walkus]

The best fans in the nation wouldn't brag about themselves being the best fans in the nation. Conclusion: Nebraska fans are arrogant, deluded assholes who have a hissy fit whenever someone doesn't think they're the best football program ever.

[Bones68charger]

lol penis envy Most teams wish they had tradition like ours. It's not that we get pissy, we are just tired of dumb ass's arguing the facts.

[StangThrower87]

How dare you!? HA. Nebraska is the best bitch

[Shaninski23]

whoa whoa whoa, back up a minute, why are you drawing conclusions on one fan, mayb he's the only arrogant fan, but dude, seriously, calm down

[hsker24fan]

Those fans don't need to brag when SI, Keith Jackson, Bobby Bowden and others have been saying that Nebraska has the classiest and best fans there are. Calm down, walrus.

[WarriorFootball]

you need offensive linemen to block and a decent defense stupid look at what texas did they had a atletic qb and a sick defense and a dominant oline look what happend to nebraska against miami's superior atleates crouch did nothing in the championship game so shut the fuck up if you dont know moron.

[WarriorFootball]

i wish nebraska ran the option like they use to but they dont have same tallent anymore

[gprentice303]

they dont recruit the same qb's, dumbass.

[Supergimpman4]

excuse me yall but nebraska DOES have the best fans in the country. PERIOD.

[forshizzle3415]

damn hes fast for a white guy

[BreweryDuke]

Remember when Nebraska fans didn't talk smack? Callahan sure brings real class to that program.

[nomoreuserid]

I'm a Nebraska fan and I can't wait until we run that dufus out of the state. We just have to put up with another year of him making excuses after losing EVERY IMPORTANT GAME of the season.

[GreenGreen1818]

im sorry , i cant hear you talking now.. something wrong?

[MVPujols]

does that change the fact that OU lost ot NU.. oh , btw mr. douche , i missed the part where OU beat even played in the championship in 01..

[MVPujols]

Funny how OU thought they couldnt be beat in 2001, Go big red!

[peanutboy0921]

funny how nebraska beat miami in the championship, oh wait they didnt.

[ki55army]

That isn't true, our quarterback blew his damn knee out.
