Neal Brown and WVU

[cathouse]

Just lost to Houston in the most Kentucky way ever. SMH.

55 yard Hail Mary at the buzzer AFTER scoring on a 50 yard pass play with 12 seconds left to take a 4 point lead.

Looked like the Miracle in the Bluegrass play.

What a ending! One of greatest of all time.

Unbelievable!!

Knock it down!!!!!!

The 15 yard celebration pentaly after the West Virgina touchdown cost them the game. They kicked off from the 20. Without those 15 yards the Hail Mary would not have reached the end zone.

Nothing tops the LSU play to beat us after we had already Gatoraided our Coach.

Just a horrible beat. Glad I didn’t see it live, I would’ve called into work sick. Said my goodbyes to $630.

Yep. That little WVA QB just had to taunt the players on the field and the Houston fans in the stands.

I wonder what his finger smells like now?

I agree. I didn't say it topped it. Just said it resembled that play. At least that was the first thing I thought of when I saw it happening.

What a horrible memory for UK FB fans. No last second losing play in FB will ever top that if you are a UK fan. And little Nicky Saban was the LSU coach.....

Like the runners who slow up as they approach the finish line only to trip and get passed up.

Yea Saban was Coach. My daughter was playing travel softball and we were at a tournament. I was watching game on a 2 inch Casio TV and I got so mad when the play happened I broke my handheld TV like a idiot.

Another play that hurt was the Florida game where they drove field and caught pass in end zone to beat us and our chance to stop streak. Us UK fans have suffered much over years and that is why I do not get mad at Stoops because at least we are acceptable.

 

[RonRajon]

The very next season after the LSU debacle was the 21-3 Florida 4th quarter comeback. Still stings.

I remember watching that game at home and right about the time the Gatorade bath happened my wife was walking out the door and asked who was winning.

I said “UK’s getting ready to win unless something stupid happens”.

Then, stupid happened.

Which is a ridiculous rule .

I have been following UK football religiously since Roger Bird.

It has mostly been a painful and frustrating journey.

I stood in the west ez and told my Dad and seat neighbors we had no business doing the Gatorade bit with time on the clock and LSU snapping the ball... some looked at me like I jinxed it or possessed dark magic after it happened right in front of us.

I was down on the field watching our fans attempt to tear down the goal post as they scored....😂😂😂😂😂

I had forgot about that. What a day?

This wasn't you was it?

 

[RonRajon]

Against LSU, I believe some dumbass lineman panicked and called a timeout WAY too early before Begley’s FG.

 

[Glenn's take]

U of L has one that ranks up with the LSU one and it was Brett Favre that delivered it while at Southern Miss. And if the video is too grainy, it does bounce off a helmet to the guy.

Yeah, that was the LSU season before they won the national title.

They got their asses kicked by auburn before UK and Alabama right after. Almost a 3 game losing streak. Saban defense also gave up 30 plus 3 games in a row.

 

[The-Hack]

I was in my hometown at a large community church with our religious leaders, countering a Klan march on the November day of the Bluegrass miracle.

My friends and I watched the last two minutes of the game.

The day put football into perspective: the Klan marched, no one got hurt, and Kentucky lost a ball game.

 

[The-Hack]

Almost a 3 game losing streak.

That same season, Arkansas upset LSU completing only two passes the whole game, both on a last minute drive.

Saban referenced our game in his post-game interview.
