The chaotic, controversial final second of the 2009 Big 12 Championship Game deserves a deep rewind
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 31 май 2024
- It’s December 5th, 2009. We’re in Arlington, Texas for the Big 12 Championship Game. Down two, Texas is lined up for a field goal attempt that would punch their ticket to the BCS National Championship Game. For Nebraska, if this score holds then they’ll bring home their first conference title since 1999, while simultaneously throwing a major wrench into the BCS title race.
So to better appreciate that, to understand what’s going through Colt McCoy's head, to recognize the game-wrecking greatest of Ndamukong Suh, and to remember why we’ve still got this one tick on the clock, we need to rewind.

This game fundamentally hurts my soul in an indescribable way to this day. I still cant watch the kick without turning the video off early. It truly set the tone for my existence as a Nebraska fan.
I would highly recommend SB considers a deeper dive to the 2021 Nebraska season as a whole. It is one of the wildest seasons of football in the history of CFB and deserves further analysis.
The Michigan Nebraska game that year was the most electric atmosphere I’ve ever experienced
The Kick Six does that to me. I’ll turn off a highlight video quick.
Hookem lil boi
@@TheCheffer76I feel the same about Desmond Howards punt return lol
I remember being a senior in high school for this game at a huge watch party at my buddy’s house. There was about 15 of us all losing our minds when Suh was absolutely dominating for 4 quarters. I cannot begin to describe how dead and helpless that room was when Texas made that FG. Just like you I feel like it really left a huge impact on me as a Husker fan. Out of all of our recent struggles this game still pops in my head as one of my worst Husker memories lol
Fun fact...Suh threw Colt McCoy for more yards than McCoy gained on the ground
That sack will never leave my memory. Just tossed him like a big ol sack of potatoes lmao
I liked when he gave him a rock bottom. @@dustinglasier6417
@@nightwingaven69
I liked it when the huskers lost.
Yeah...tough game. It happens@@somebody9889
And still lost
This was the last time we were almost relevant. It still hurts.
To top that off, Suh absolutely deserved to be #1 or #2 in the Heisman race that year, but being a defensive player that wasn’t on a team in the top 3 in the nation meant he was #4 when the Heisman votes came in. By the definition that the Heisman goes to the most outstanding and impactful player, he more than deserved it, and this game proved it.
Suh in this game had one of the greatest single game performances in the history of the sport at any level
Except for, yaknow… one tiny thing.
HE LOST LMAO
@@Cthulhu3C buddy Suh owns Texas to this day and you know it
@@natehollenbeck6348 He doesn't since we beat him every time lol. Texas OWNS nebraska.

Thank you for deflecting and proving my point. Since you deflected to something not discussed.
You lose.
Now get triggered and reply back some more to continue proving my point 😘
This game is one of the catalysts for the great realignment of college football from 2010-2024
Yup. This game and the Longhorn Network.
No, it was really only Nebraska’s whiny excuse for a move they would have absolutely made anyway. (1) The call was correct, and (2) Nebraska admins would have to have been braindead to turn down a spot in one of the two most demographically secure conferences.
How kind of you to do a deep dive into the day my childhood was ruined
Why did this ruin your childhood? Nebraska wasn’t playing for anything in this game? They were a 3 loss team ranked #22. At very best Nebraska played for an orange bowl if they win. Nebraska gets what it deserves for biting the hand that feeds them. Now they’re irrelevant bottom feeders in a cold weather football conference. Lmao wimps
As a Nebraska fan being able to witness suh play each week was truly amazing. I’m only 27 but in all my years he’s truly the most dominant college football player I’ve ever seen play. He was a DT and still the most influential player on the field each snap.
I'm not a Nebraska fan but he is the most dominant defensive player I've seen in my life. The way you had to even try to guard him was ridiculous. Teams were sending 3 guys at him at times it was unreal.
Charles Woodson was the 1st primarily defensive player to win the Heisman, Ndamukong Suh should've been the 2nd. Dude was unreal.
He’s also the dirtiest player ever
you were a chld when he played there xD like that could make any impact on you xD
@@darthsilversith667 when you got 3, 300 lb goons going at you every play, you better fight dirty.
Suh singlehandedly almost won that game. He should've won the Heisman that year as well as he was paralleled with top defenses in the country(Alabama and Florida just to name a few) and it goes to show that if he couldn't win that award , no primary defensive player will ever win the Heisman. Go Big RED!
If Nebraska wins this game, Suh wins the Heisman.
@@saintbrownthetrojanno no he doesnt

@@saintbrownthetrojansadly, not even that would have mattered. For whatever reason, back in 2009, the voters still mailed in their votes. So the Heisman was already decided before conf. Championship weekend.
really hard to understate how much of a celebrity Ndamukong Suh was in nebraska. here in lincoln he was in tv advertisements and on billboards - something i’d never seen from a college football player before
How was that allowed before the NIL stuff? He just didn’t get paid for it?
Well you couldn't see that because CFB players werent allowed to do endorsements until they changed the NIL rules
Blatant lying
He set the stage for Nebraska football to come - we have Chris Simms meals here in Omaha, and Doug McDermott burgers in bars. One of the guys who really helped College players get the respect, and money, that they deserve.
@@daniels8112Oh, he got paid. NCAA doesn’t like talking about it though.
Not mentioned when he said Nebraska playing for the little guy/ mid majors, Cincinnati. They went 12-0 and actually jumped TCU for 3rd place in the final BCS rankings. It's believed if Texas loses, Cincinnati would have been playing Bama for a trophy.
Thank goodness Texas won 😊
Cincinatti wasnt a mid major at that point...
I'd tend to agree. They were in the Big East at the time,which had BCS Bowl tie ins. However he listed the Big East as Mid Major in his graph.

Putting the big east as a mid major is some hard core historical revisionism
Lol right, UC jumped TCU in the week after rankings. If Texas loses we’re looking at Cincy in the national title game
honestly lmao
He also accidentally said that NU won the Big XII South
It really should have been. The Big East was a joke compared to the MWC and WAC in the BCS post 2003.
If it’s any consolation to Nebraska fans, our next game against Alabama where Colt McCoy went down with a pinched nerve in his throwing shoulder and having to watch a true freshman now take over hurt worse than the ‘01 Big 12 Championship when we lost to Colorado because Mack started Chris Simms over Major Applewhite. 😭
It is not. The worst decision the big 8 made was to allow Texas in the conference. If not for Texas greed the original conference sans Texas would more than likely still be intact and be better for it. Nebraska was screwed. There is nothing else to say. There were 0's on the clock. Period.
@@ZakJJ1 Sucks to Suh
@@ZakJJ1 there weren’t lol. We had one second

I was at the game vs Colorado and for as long as I live, I’ll never forget the booing against Chris Simms, and then when he was finally benched, Major throwing a bomb to BJ Johnson.

Suh should have won the Heisman Trophy. That was the most dominant season I've ever seen a defensive player have
I’m a diehard Bammer and totally agree. While I was thrilled that Mark Ingram brought home the first Heisman Trophy in Alabama football history, I absolutely concede that Suh was the BEST player that season. He single handedly kept Nebraska in this game. Nebraska’s completely lack of offense cost them the title.
I remember screaming there is one more second and nearly having a heart attack on the McCoy roll out
Please more Texas content. I beg of you
Suh was a damn monster for Colt that game. He single handily the wrecked our O-Line.
The Offensive line was atrocious that whole season. It’s unbelievable the numbers colt put up with that caliber of O line
@@austinperkins6820Yep. They were awful. Pretty amazing that Texas somehow went undefeated before the NC game with an OL that bad.
Love when there is a new video on a topic I have no previous knowledge of!
this was an extremely thoughtful video. thank you for putting this together
Another great video!
Suh was dominant in NCAA football game as well!
I'm a Nebraska fan and I would love for you guys to do a Collapse video on Nebraska Football. You guys did very well with this video and I've always hoped you would spotlight Nebraska at some point.
I second that. I grew up during the post-apocalyptic era of Nebraska hearing about the glory days from my parents and everyone else who was around in the 90s. I'd love to see how we got to that from what we used to be. I mean it will be painful to watch but definitely informative.
I've wondered the same. Nebraska to me seems like a perfect team for that format because their decline has been so long. They lost the BCS against Miami, and they've spiraled into a hole that they've never really gotten out of.
@@lucashenderson2775they’re getting out of it right now

Such a great call by Musberger
Having never watched this play before I was fully expecting a block by Suh
I’m a Cincinnati fan and think about this game all the time. I was in a hotel in Pittsburgh just having witnessed a crazy comeback by my Bearcats to cap an undefeated year. If this kick goes wide, or that extra second goes off the clock- Cincy goes to the the championship game vs Bama. We would have had extremely long odds to win, but could Brian Kelly have still left for ND with his team playing for a ring? Would Nebraska have taken another step in 2010 having won the Big12? Maybe they wouldn’t have left for the Big 10? This game is the Butterfly Effect of college football.
There is no scenario Cincinatti should have gone to the title game over TCU. It was criminal that UT went to the title game over TCU, but UC would have even less of an argument.
- TCU beat more ranked teams than UT & UC
- TCU beat higher ranked teams than UT & UC
- TCU beat ranked teams by a larger margin than UT & UC (vs UC - 21.6 vs 2 MOV)
- TCU had the #1 ranked defense by ypg and #2 by ppg (UT was #6 and UC was #48)
- TCU had the #4 ranked offense (UT was #5 and UC was #3)
Cincinatti shouldnt have even been ranked above Boise State. That ranking never made any sense. Boise State outclassed UC in every statistical category and beat #7 Oregon by 18. UC only had one more ranked game then them beating #15 Pitt by 1 and #16 WVU by 3 in OT. Boise State and UC even had two common opponents and it wasnt even close:
- vs Miami: UC won 37-24; Boise State won 48-0
- vs Fresno State: UC won 28-20; Boise State won 57-24
@@MattBuild4 let me guess- TCU fan?
@@wanini24 Actually no. Just annoyed with the narratives of bs sport. As a fan i wanted Boise State in the game. But they didnt really play anyone outside of Oregon. This was the common narrative as to why Mid-Majors were never good enough for a title bid.
But 2008-2010 proved how bs that narrative truly was. 08 Utah beat 5 Top 25 teams and went undefeated, but was still ranked behind 6 teams with worse records and less ranked wins. 09 TCU beat more ranked teams than everyone besides Alabama, literally had a higher SOS, but somehow that didnt matter. 10 - The perfect illustration of how bad the system truly was. 2010 TCU first team in NCAA history to go undefeated and get jumped out of a championship game despite more than twice as many ranked wins as Oregon and statistically superior by 100X than auburn, but that didnt matter. TCU beats a Top 6 teams on the road by 40 points and drops in the rankings..... And the cherry on top and unranked 8-5 Big East Champ getting the nod for the BCS over #7 12-1 Boise State, because they were a mid major..... Bruh - 2010 Boise State averaged a larger margin of victory than Big East Champ Uconn scored points per game - and it wasnt close (36.7 vs 20.2). BSU beat 4 T25 teams vs Uconn's 0.
It doesnt get more obvious than that, that the system is completely f&cked.....
These teams didnt make a title game not because of anything they did or didnt do, but because they didnt have the clout of money. Thats it. You realize this "sport" is a complete sham when you come to terms with this truth.
@@MattBuild4 Well if the 2009 BCS version of this problem still bothers you, I can only imagine what you think of today's system. BTW, I'd love to have seen Cincinnati take on TCU and Boise in 2009. SOS stats aside, I still like my Bearcats' odds against both teams.
I was sitting behind that goal post, what a memory! Although i mostly just remember Suh throwing my boy Colt around like a rag doll.
This hurts so much to watch. I have to like this video because it’s another great one by secret base, but I had to close my eyes to hit the like button
GBR
That Nebraska offense was so bad. This was the year Nebraska lost to Iowa State 9-7 and had 8 turnovers on offense.
how things never change
As I said at the time, if Nebraska's offense had been merely run-of-the-mill bad, they would have been 12-1. Instead, it was absolutely wretched. Joe Ganz having one more year would have put that team in the BCS.
Niles Paul running by himself for a touchdown just drops the ball. That Iowa State game was another of many knives to the heart. #GBR
That was rough for Nebraska. At least I know Suh went on to have a great pro career and beef.
Nebraska was in the Big 12 North
This is the first Nebraska game I remember… it’s been nothing but pain since
I'm a husker fan. Always have been always will be. This game is like a dagger to the back every time it's mentioned. We were so close. We still feel we were screwed.
But we got to see colt run for his life against suh.
That was the best husker defense in ages and to see them fall just. Short ugh
You didn't get screwed, there was 1 second left. Great call by the refs.
@@somebody9889 I said we felt screwed. Big difference. We can't forget what was going on with the conference and the longhorn network at that time. There's a reason why the big 12 died and is dead and a shell of its self now.
@@LordJudgement1818The Big 12 was always going to die. It was a great conference for 15 years, but it was always a demographic weakling compared to the Big Ten and the SEC, and as the money involved in the sport grew explosively, it was only a matter of time before the conference got dismembered.

Still remember screaming my 15 year old heart out 🤘🏾
Haven't heard wills voice on a vid in a while. Welcome back dude
That year Texas had 22 tackles for loss all season. Ndamukong Suh had 23.
National champion Alabama had 9 sacks. Suh had 12.
Defending national champions Florida had 10 QB hurries. Suh had 24.
That man earned his heisman trophy goddamnit.
I was a 5th grader living in Texas as a Nebraska fan. I cried like a baby. If Nebraska had won this game I probably would have been insufferable to my UT friends but this was like, genuinely devastating to me. This was the start of Nebraska footballs depression machine.
Same here I was 8 living in Austin as a husker 😪
I was there. Quite possibly the most excruciating win I’ve ever experienced.
Yep
As a Alabama fan Nebraska we had yalls back just watch the National Championship to slightly ease the pain.
I love the cfb content
I grew up watching Nebraska football, before going to OkState and switching teams. This was my first real Nebraska game, and I was about to turn 10. I got to go to this game as a birthday present. I was there with my dad, and we watched Suh dominate Texas for 60 minutes. I remember watching that ball sail out of bounds. I can remember it as clear as day. Dad and I were jumping up and down with glee. I had finally understood why people really liked Nebraska. My dad had watched them win two national titles in person, and now we had seen the resurgence of Nebraska as they should be. But this joy only lasted a few moments, as they subsequently added a second back on the clock. The kick was in slow motion. I will never forget it. I will never forget the orange and white confetti that then rained down through the tears that streamed down my face. I have resented Texas ever since then. I will never blame refs for a loss, and I think that the people who do that are poor sports. Texas won the game. There is nothing beyond that. It did not matter to me. I will never forget how robbed we felt, and the sadness that I felt. Luckily, I have seen Texas lose to my pokes quite a bit (save for this year haha).
As a Texas fan who was at that game in Arlington, it was impressive how Suh and the Nebraska D had N in position to win. It was also clear to me that the last replay got it unquestionably right, and Texas got the correct one second back. I still deal with Nebraska fans who feel somehow robbed.?.?. The disillusion runs deep. 🙄
@@737smartinlol delusion runs deep? Hmm considering that rule states you can't use replay to just check the clock. Never was that way in the NFL or up to this point. Bottom line only reason Texas got their way was Dan Bebee kissing a$$ for more money which lead to Big 12 going the way it is today.

2023 Welcome to a moment in history...
After this game it just feels Nebraska is cursed
There are a couple of things I wanted to point out about the history of this season that this video didn’t quite get correct.
1. Nebraska played in the Big 12 north, not the Big 12 south.
2. The Big East was not a mid major conference. They were a BCS conference. They were certainly the weakest of the 6, but the conference champion had an automatic bid to a BCS game. That’s not what I would consider mid major.
3. TCU and Boise State were not the only undefeated conference champions hoping for Texas to stumble. Cincinnati had also wrapped up and undefeated Big East title that morning and would have jumped TCU to go to the national championship game.
If you’re going to consider the Big East a mid major program, then I find it odd that you left them out when talking about who would have benefitted from a Texas loss.
Facts, Joshua Jackson. Facts.
Suh probably would've won the Heisman had they not cheated Nebraska in the end. Any other team, any other game would've been over, there was 0 time left on the clock, Nebraska/Suh won
No, there was one second left when the ball went out of bounds. Sorry man. Suh was still awesome though.
This is the most stressful Texas game I've ever watched. 🤘
Me too. I was at the game and felt like I got beat up. I also went to the Longhorn Sooner game earlier and it was also a defensive battle. They had Gerald McCoy.
Ah yes, Colt McCoy, the most famous person to ever come from Hobbs, New Mexico.
Please do a rewinder on Novak Djokovic hitting one of the most legendary return winners ever at the US Open 2011 semifinal vs Roger Federer. Thanks.
I remember watching this game but I forgot all about how Boise State and TCU were both undefeated and robbed of a chance to play for a national championship. Just another of the many victims, of the college football powers that be deciding not to implement a real playoff system until next year.
The TCU embarrassment in the title game last year kinda showed that the committee made the right decision back in 09,I think that's why they kept Florida state out this year
Can’t wait for the 4th and 31 miracle play from the iron bowl review
As a Boise State fan, I was actually pulling for Texas during the game. If Texas lost, Nebraska would have taken a BCS bowl spot, and the BCS chaos would have likely left the Broncos out. TCU wouldn't have climbed to #2 because Cincinnati has won earlier that day and they would have made the title game against Bama since they beat Pitt earlier in the day. BSU needed the Big 12 champ to go to the championship so the Broncos could take their BCS spot.
Kinda random but can we do a rewind on the Montreal screwjob? Or UT vs. WVU in 2018 or Bama vs Georgia sec title game 2018
At 7:50, you said that no midmajor made the title game in the BCS era, but didn’t Miami make the BCS title game in 01 and 02 while members of the Big East? Or did they not count because they joined the ACC years later?
Big east wasn't a mid major at the time
Their champion had an automatic spot in a BCS bowl
Yeah the graphic isn’t really correct
The Big East made it a "power 6" at the time. They would hold on to that automatic bid until the Big East/AAC split in 2013
Big East arguably was more than just a mid major. 2001 and 2002 both had 4 ranked teams of the 8 in the Big East, easily a P6 at the time. Although they continued to hold their automatic bid, it took a dent in '04 when Miami and Virginia Tech left. The conference itself phased out of football in '13, with the ACC taking some of the best remaining teams and the leftovers going to the newly created American conference. West Virginia left in '12 to the Big 12 I believe.
If anyone has more accurate detail, feel free to correct me
the big east wasn't a Mid Major back then
It was awesome! My Nebraska friends STILL haven't gotten over it!!!
Pain just pain
How the hell do you not say that the Big East was an automatic qualifier back then and the Cincinnati would have played for the title had Texas lost?? Maybe Brian Kelly doesn't leave for Notre Dame and the butterfly effect that the 1 extra second caused?
Bro… hate to break it to you but Brian Kelly would have went to notre dame regardless… you don’t turn down notre dame to stay at Cincinnati… lol
The big east seemed to always have a team in BCS tittle contention as well
It wasn’t an “extra” one second, and it didn’t result in any “butterfly effect.”
I'd love to see a Deep Rewind video on Sirr Parker's touchdown in the 1998 Big 12 Championship Game. Arguably the most devastating loss any CFB team has ever suffered.
I remember watching that game too. Good game if you like low scoring defensive battles.
Crazy, crazy game
7:52 incorrect! The Big East was part of the Power 6 conferences. Virgina Tech and Miami made the national championship when they were in the Big East conference.
I hope 4th & 31 gets a rewind soon. College football fan here. 🙂
Just ask Cosmo and Wanda
Fun Fact: Ndamukong Suh won MVP of this game even though Nebraska lost. Only other time a losing teams player received MVP in the Big12 championship was Nebraska RB DeAngelo Evans in a loss to Texas.
If you can edit, at 7:11 Nebraska played their way to the top of the Big 12 North, not South.
Nitpicking here but the Big East was not a “mid major” in 2009. The winner of the conference automatically received a BCS bid which made it an auto qualifier conference just like the SEC, Big 10 etc.
hey Will what happened to Texas after that
I would love a beef video on Patrick Roy vs. Mario Tremblay or George Steinbrenner vs. Billy Martin
I was 9 and crying after this game
Don’t want to be *that* guy but Miami won the title in 2001 and played in 2002 while they were playing in the Big East. (In regards to your mid-major inclusion of the BE)
The Big East was a P6 conference (there used to be six).
@@nwj03a big time agree. I was only addressing the fact he stated no team from the Big East had ever made it to the NCG and referred to them as a mid-major conference.
Texas defense carried the offense all season, I remember thinking Colt McCoy played one of the worst seasons of his tenure at Texas his senior year. Honestly it was like pulling teeth watching this game as a Longhorn fan, that Nebraska defense was extremely good.
Ironically the previous game Colt had to carry the team at A&M when the defense sprung a leak

In hindsight so happy Suh got his hopes and dreams crushed
Yeah, he turned out to be a real POS. Odd that he wasn’t that way in college.
Pulled from the trenches of the somme, deep ww1 cut yo
I went to high school with Suh. Still happy he didn't win Heisman. I always wonder exactly how many people he stomped on while they were on the ground.
this was the beginning of the end for Nebraska football
Nebraska was robbed of so many national Championships by lack of instant replay, and then they lose this because of it.
What a great video
Colt McCoy would have definitely won it if he was healthy

What’s funny is after all this the Big12 was crushed by the SEC when Alabama beat Texas for the NC. Now, some 17 years later, the B12 has collapsed with Texas A&M, Texas and OU leaving for the SEC.
Watching this I thought for sure Texas was going to blow it
Me too.
I was there! 🤘
Why on earth would Texas even bother with a rollout and pass there...? Just looking for extra yards? But if that's the case, why not run a real play and then take a quick time out if it works?
Would like to make my request for a Rewinder in the realm of hockey: 1995 World Championships final, Sweden v Finland.
Watching this literally brought back anxiety and memories of this game..... Suh wrecked us man, we could not block him at all.... I honestly couldn't believe that we were fixin to lose to some damn team that didn't even have an offense, but luckily we prevailed.... Hook 'em!!!!!🤘🤘🤘💯💯💯
Can you please do the 1997 Rose Bowl next?
Suh was the last hope of a defensive player winning Heisman. That 09 vote was the nail in the coffin for any defensive player ever winning it again.
why did I think they'd miss it this time
The ending of this gave me the ick.
