"I'm a man! I'm about to go 0-4 in conference!" - BYU vs Oklahoma State

[myboynoah]

Everything everyone has already said! It was electric, and with Jake on the field I'm back to thinking we can pull off those last minute wins. Haven't had that feeling for some time now.

So so so so fun to be there.

Plus, the drone show was pretty cool.

Luke Staley down the sideline vs Utah was similar. As was the bomb in the endzone vs Boise State.

I was at the Luke Staley game in 01. Probably recency bias but last night seemed a bit better. I was asleep on my couch in nyc for the Boise state win. I do NOT miss being on the east coast for these night games.

Yeah we definitely got to know everyone around us on that winning TD. It's right up there with the best last second wins I have been able to attend. It was honestly better than the win at Nebraska because the stakes were higher and at nebraska a big chunk of the byu fans were at the opposite end and it took us a few seconds to realize what had happened. This one was at home and instantly 60k of us erupted in pure joy. For me it was comparable to Beck to Harline in terms of the spontaneous hugging of stangers but that was also on the road so much fewer of us to share the moment. The only comparison I can think of is the 2007 last drive against utah. But again the stakes were higher last night; I put that game very near the top of byu football moments I have experienced in person.

That last drive and TD were magical. Really fun thing to experience live. People hugging and high-fiving complete strangers. Everyone in a state of shock. Everyone stood there for a long time in a state of shock and joy before starting to leave.

The team up in the ROC... awesome:

Yep. And let's not forget BYU had all three time outs at the end when they needed them. Without all three, I think we lose the game.

I was watching the score online and noticed the 3 timeouts remaining when OKST last scored. I didn't think BYU was going to be able to score a touchdown with a minute left (I know, wavering faith), but the 3 timeouts were a glimmer of hope, especially with zero OKST timeouts.

Yes, the three timeouts were surprising given the dreadful use of TOs in the first half. Truly the stars aligned those last two minutes. This has been a very entertaining season.

The time out may have been the most miraculous piece to the puzzle. What was with the TO in the first half where the offense didn't seem to ever get a play called? We were joking about A-rod just drawing a blank. "Guys, I got nothing."

[Uncle Ted]

I had the exact same thought when they scored. I have a really hard time actually advocating letting your opponent score a go ahead touchdown, but I was almost happy when they punched it in and left us over a minute.

I was really happy when #6 let us score on the other end…

Even though he most likely had a very long flight home.

It's always nice when you win your clunker.

I can't remember the defender's name (just as well), but the missed tackle on OSU's go-ahead TD was very fortunate. Had he not missed, OSU wold have had first and goal at the 2- or 3-yard line and would have eaten up clock, denying BYU one of the all-time great comeback drives. Give the defender a helmet sticker.
