I was only about 20 yards away from Crouch at one point during this play.

Then I was about 130 yards away.   :koolaid2:

That reminds me of a game I was at, UCLA v NU in 2012. Taylor Martinez had a 92 yard touchdown run in the first quarter that came right to where we were sitting.

In the fourth quarter, backed up inside the 10 again, they saw an opportunity to run the same play, but a missed block turned a 96 yard touchdown into a safety.  One play could have been two very different games. 

That was the post-injury Martinez, but he had some incredible runs that season. Only thing that comes close to this Eric Crouch TD is Taylor's crazy escape dash against Wisconsin in the CCG. I like Crouch's because it had a happy ending.

Boy, we don't know how good we had it then.  TM, AA, Rex, Bell, etc  Oh, to be 9-4 or even 10-3 again.

Gosh that was such an awesome block. He could have made it more vicious if he wanted, but let up. No longer need to coach kids to keep their head on a swivel after that hit.
 

Gives me flashbacks to soph year HS as a 5’4 120lb safety on scout team when our 6’4 275lb OT blindsided me on a reverse. Lifted me off the ground, mouthpiece spit out, and wind knocked out lol. Never anticipated an OL getting to the safety level before the WR/ball carrier turned the corner upfield.

My first thought when I saw that Conor was walking on was his Dad's reaction after sacking Costa.

For us old guys, that video, that game was like a huge cleansing of the soul - a baptism of red kool-aid.  :koolaid2:

It never gets old watching it.
