+Christopher Plummer Im not an ou i cant stand them and i was watching this game with my dad and we were both loao when we saw tavon make them look slow. omg good times.. i was upset when ou still won
Tavon is full of talent, skill and has an extremely high football IQ. Ppl will always doubt and say he's too small or this and that, BUT always forget the sigle most important factor: HE MADE IT TO THE NFL and shined his entire life at this sport. I can't stand "size junkies" I'm not very big, but I'm fast, agile and strong and most importantly above the so called "big men" I START at my position because I have the ability to make it happen each play I'm in. Big Hearts come in all sizes!
Tavon has worked hard at every turn, done everything coaches have asked him to do, and put WVU on his shoulders in big games, win or lose, time after time. He represents WVU very well as an athlete and a man. I wish this kid all the best. Thanks for the 4 years, Tavon.
I really dont even know what to say but his is amazing to me. Coming out of baltimore Im glad he representing and using his talents to the FULLEST on the field. It's been a pleasure watching him back when he was at Dunbar, all the way up until now.
I'm just glad that i got to witness Tavon play these last few years....we will never see another talent like this again...truly amazing to watch....On Senior day, i'll be in the stands screaming for him louder than anyone else as he has the heart of a true EER, when things have been tough, he always rose up and played his arse off!!!! I've never bought a jersey, but come the KU game, i'll have to!!
Tavon is just one of those guys that just just leaves your jaw open. Every time he steps onto the field, he does something that absolutely amazes me. He reminds me of Marshall Faulk, even though Marshal was a RB, Tavon can be a legitimate RB and, slot receiver, watch out NFL, here he comes!!!
Greatest game I've ever seen a single player have in person, and I was at the Baylor game in 2012 as well when Geno threw for 650 and 8 TD's. #One uppin'
I hope hes a Lion.. This brings tears to my eyes.. I havent seen a person cut like that and move like that since barry sanders.. Its weird but this video brings the tears on.. Most electric dynamic tailback in this years draft.. Hes a 3 in 1 package and will be a pro bowler guranteed. Your the man Austin.
Some might disagree, but Tavon Austin is the greatest player to ever put on a Mountaineer jersey. He is absolutely at another level and will be playing at a VERY high level at the next level. Brings tears to my eyes that I'll be watching the last three games of his career coming up. What a loss it will be next year...
Tavon Austin is the most talented Mountaineer we have ever had. Argue with me all your want, saw his first touchdown, saw all of Pat's games, love Quincy and Geno. I'm sorry Nation this is our guy!
Tavon IS the best player in the country! He's just such an amazing player that can change a game in the blink of an eye! He's going to be missed next season.
I've watched this video, I don't know how many times. Two things for me; why wasn't he a consensus all american and why didn't they use him at tail back more often?
Just had to watch this after some OU fans saw my WVU hat today and talked about how shockingly dangerous Tavon was in this game. Told them to look for Tavon's Night on RUclips to see a great video of his performance. Great job Dougity!
Whoever gets Tavon is getting the whole package. RB WR KR PR. Stop and Start Acceleration is unmatched by anybody. His Field Vision is incredible. His cuts are jaw dropping, his speed is insane. Whats best about Tavon Austin tho is his WORK ETHIC. He is constantly working out and working on foot work. Thats why he is what he is. Whoever drafts him is getting the best player in the draft. He is worth a top 10 pick no doubt. You are about to see the most exciting player in Football PERIOD
This was the greatest offensive performance in this century of college football. I can't name a better game by a single player. This is not hyperbole. Tavon Austin was just THAT dominant and THAT unstoppable. You truly had to witness it to believe it.
We all know he will not be picked until about 15 or maybe 20. But folks, NFL fans, whichever one of you gets him will be very happy. The record of our team did not put him in Heisman contention, but Austin was the best player in college football in 2012. Period. He will do some special things. Don't know about 100 catches, can't tell you what he'll do, but I will tell you he will OFTEN make excellent NFL players look like high school players. And he has a knack for not taking brutal hits. Cars.
you'd be very fortunate and very, very happy. He is a rare, special player. And he has a knack for not taking brutal hits that ruins careers. Austin also has a gift for making great players on defense look silly. That will continue in the NFL. I promise. Cars.
I would actually say his greatest strength is how quickly he can change direction. He has excellent straight line speed, but his movement almost reminds me of watching a super quick premier league wing player in the open field. I'm extremely interested to see him play on sundays. Wish him well.
I challenge anybody to come up with a more impressive performance by any athlete in any sport that what Tavon did to Oklahoma that night. IMHO, Tavon Austin was the *BEST* Collegiate Football player in 2012 and should have been the Heisman winner; at a minimum, on the stage in New York. Tavon, we will miss you.
The man skill set is impressive. I mean I cannnot wait to see how Jeff Fisher and his offensive coaching staff will utilize his talents in that Dome in St. Louis. The NFC WEST is my opinion right now even as weak as the Cardinals are HANDS DOWN the best division in football..
I really want this guy in Miami. Just imagine the offense with Keller at TE, Wallace's speed, Hartline's crispy routes, and Austin's... well everything.
Tavon is pure athleticism. Look at Mayock's mock draft and everyones projections...TA is ahead of dudes 8" taller than him! Why? BECAUSE HE IS A PLAY MAKER, GAME CHANGER and BEAST. Players dominate, everyone else just hopes to catch a glimpse of your greatness and mimic it. Nuff said...
The song is "Midnight City- M83" in other news, I'd love to see him on my Browns or Seahawks. I saw him play Saturday against Kansas and I can flat out say I've never seen a more dynamic player.
Anyone else excited to see him in the NFL next year? He may not be that big in terms of size, but his speed and vision will hopefully land him a good team :D
Tavon Austin's high school scouting report said this: "Trying to tackle Austin is like catching a rabbit in a cornfield. He has a tremendous ability to shift gears and accelerate in the open field. He is a great cutback runner, because of his shiftiness and vision." I'd say Oklahoma would verify that this is not an exaggeration.
Not sure where that assessment comes from or what that even means. If you're referencing the part where he is dancing on the sideline, you should know it was when "Jump Around" was playing shortly after WVU had taken the lead in the 4th quarter, and the entire stadium was absolutely rocking.
Yup, I figured that it was before the combine, and u are absolutely correct...I'll take that 32nd pick every yr. it means youre team champs!!! I was thinking Ravens, may take T'eo, but not after his combine performance. Man, he ran an abysmal 4.8 in the 40!
I remember watching this game as an OU fan, and just praying that he wouldn’t get the ball again. Maybe the most frustrating 3 hours of my life.
You guys still won the game though 😂
I kept hoping you guys would hurry up and score on that last drive so we could get the ball back and win and get Tavon the record
Not near as frustrating as watching a performance like that and still losing…
I get chills every time I watch this clip. One of the all-time great single-game performances in college history.
Miss him playing college football
I remember watching that game wearing my Austin WVU jersey and didn't sit down one second the entire game! A Mountaineer Great!! Let's Go Eers!!!
+Christopher Plummer Im not an ou i cant stand them and i was watching this game with my dad and we were both loao when we saw tavon make them look slow. omg good times.. i was upset when ou still won
Those afterburners while turning the corner at 1:10 are superhuman.
Seriously that is the most insane acceleration I've seen. It looks like a video game with a cheat code.
Gives me goosebumps
man just imagine him with the chiefs rn or ravens, mad teams & oc didn’t know how to use him
One my favorite videos right here! Always loved how it turned out.
Tavon is full of talent, skill and has an extremely high football IQ. Ppl will always doubt and say he's too small or this and that, BUT always forget the sigle most important factor: HE MADE IT TO THE NFL and shined his entire life at this sport. I can't stand "size junkies" I'm not very big, but I'm fast, agile and strong and most importantly above the so called "big men" I START at my position because I have the ability to make it happen each play I'm in. Big Hearts come in all sizes!
Everytime I watch this I get chills. Gonna suck not seeing this kid play for WVU anymore. Had a great career. Good luck in the NFL
As an OU fan, that game was hard to watch,still can't believe they won. That dude was in beast mode that night
Some say he is still running on the Sooner defense to this day.
I was at that game and it was the greatest performance I've witnessed live. I can't stop watching this highlight reel.
His elusiveness, speed, and quickness kills 😎
Tavon has worked hard at every turn, done everything coaches have asked him to do, and put WVU on his shoulders in big games, win or lose, time after time. He represents WVU very well as an athlete and a man. I wish this kid all the best. Thanks for the 4 years, Tavon.
One of the best videos in RUclips history...
fax
Still come back to this video after all these years.
I really dont even know what to say but his is amazing to me. Coming out of baltimore Im glad he representing and using his talents to the FULLEST on the field. It's been a pleasure watching him back when he was at Dunbar, all the way up until now.

This vid brings back memories
Tavon is just one of those guys that just just leaves your jaw open. Every time he steps onto the field, he does something that absolutely amazes me. He reminds me of Marshall Faulk, even though Marshal was a RB, Tavon can be a legitimate RB and, slot receiver, watch out NFL, here he comes!!!

This highlight is so inspirational...........its ridiculous.
tav on Austin is faster
LETS GO MOUNTAINEERS and TAVON AUSTIN!!
Most amazing game I've seen of any player.
I still get chills watching this video.
never gets old
Ong cant believe its been 11 years
Tavon is the best ever to don the DUB V jersey. The REAL DEAL. amazing how many recruits love wvu because of him. lets go mountaineers
I hope hes a Lion.. This brings tears to my eyes.. I havent seen a person cut like that and move like that since barry sanders.. Its weird but this video brings the tears on.. Most electric dynamic tailback in this years draft.. Hes a 3 in 1 package and will be a pro bowler guranteed. Your the man Austin.
Most impressive thing about this kid is his field awareness. Always seems to know where every blocker and ever defender is and how to set them up.
Some might disagree, but Tavon Austin is the greatest player to ever put on a Mountaineer jersey. He is absolutely at another level and will be playing at a VERY high level at the next level. Brings tears to my eyes that I'll be watching the last three games of his career coming up. What a loss it will be next year...
Only guy to show up every game. We will sorely miss him.
Can watch this video OVER AND OVER AND OVER again...
Tavon's NIght you already know
Tavon Austin is the most talented Mountaineer we have ever had. Argue with me all your want, saw his first touchdown, saw all of Pat's games, love Quincy and Geno. I'm sorry Nation this is our guy!
He's tough, and always motivated. I think he'll do great things.
I think he almost made Tony Jefferson quit football after this..
He honestly made tony jefferson look like a completely different player this game...insane
Tony Jefferson is doing just fine..
You mean Tony "Jones?"
brian schitenhiemer need to watch this game over and over so he can realize when u put tavon at rb u dont have him run a dive play up the middle
***** nahh kc gt deanthony thomas
***** DAT 3rd round But look who is ballin more.....lol haven't heard of TA since he gt drafted
That was schottys fault he didn't know how to use him bot to mention tavon has had at least 4 tds called back
Well even if he don't if tavons that good he should b able to fit in a role..
DAT is puttin in straight work but TA and DAT on KC together would be dangerous.
Tavon IS the best player in the country! He's just such an amazing player that can change a game in the blink of an eye! He's going to be missed next season.
Probably the best performance I ever saw in our stadium. Killed it
I don't care what the final score was, this was still one of the most incredible performances I have ever seen.
It was incredible, I got to see it in person!
BOOMER SOONER all day baby!
Hyatt Sweezy good luck to your team Saturday sir, are you coming up here to Morgantown for the game?
@@hyattsweezy9152 not this year
I think this was the greatest performance by a single player all of this year.
I've watched this video, I don't know how many times. Two things for me; why wasn't he a consensus all american and why didn't they use him at tail back more often?
Because you didn't play a Mike Stoops defense every week.
@@stevenphillips6849 YOUR GODDAMN RIGHT!!! HORNS DOWN BABY!!! BOOMER
He's so good he makes every one forget about one of the best WR in college football Stedman Bailey
Just had to watch this after some OU fans saw my WVU hat today and talked about how shockingly dangerous Tavon was in this game. Told them to look for Tavon's Night on RUclips to see a great video of his performance. Great job Dougity!
Most athletic and electrifying player in college football.. Nuff said
Whoever gets Tavon is getting the whole package. RB WR KR PR. Stop and Start Acceleration is unmatched by anybody. His Field Vision is incredible. His cuts are jaw dropping, his speed is insane.

hands down best highlight video on youtube
one of the best performances i seen...tavon is a human video game....
Hopefully we can end the season on a high note and finish 8-5
this video never gets old
I was at this game! The most incredible individual performance I have ever seen.
THE MOST EXCITING PLAYER OF MY GENERATION 🚨💎🎯♥️
We all know he will not be picked until about 15 or maybe 20. But folks, NFL fans, whichever one of you gets him will be very happy.

Cars.
I get chills watching him
Geno Smith, Tavon Austin, and Stedman Bailey - the most exciting offensive package in CFB this year.. Don't even try to argue.
He will no matter what be in the hall of fame to us you number 1
this dude seriously just moves on another level.
He's obviously a beast, but in order to be successful at the next level, the nfl, he's really gonna need to bulk up. Much respect men!
I'm a Missouri Tiger, but I've always been a passive supporter of WV. Tavon Austin is amazing.
Song is "Midnight City Instrumental Remix"..... looked for it for literally an hour you're welcome folks.
And im going to say thank you to the great Tavon Austin for 4 electrifying years and go out with a hard bang on the 29th brotha ill miss you
Any team that passes on him will regret it in a couple years. Just watch this video, the guy is just amazing
Tavon know's he's the best and he will do well in the nfl
you'd be very fortunate and very, very happy. He is a rare, special player. And he has a knack for not taking brutal hits that ruins careers. Austin also has a gift for making great players on defense look silly. That will continue in the NFL. I promise. Cars.
I would actually say his greatest strength is how quickly he can change direction. He has excellent straight line speed, but his movement almost reminds me of watching a super quick premier league wing player in the open field. I'm extremely interested to see him play on sundays. Wish him well.
The song is "Midnight City" - M83
He will be the most impactful player from this draft
I watch this video over and over. Go Mountaineers!
"You're not supposed to be able to do this!" Lol. Tavon is way too good!
Ive seen this video about 10 times and I still cant believe what happened that night
this video is so inspirational..........thank you jesus for tavon austin
I challenge anybody to come up with a more impressive performance by any athlete in any sport that what Tavon did to Oklahoma that night. IMHO, Tavon Austin was the *BEST* Collegiate Football player in 2012 and should have been the Heisman winner; at a minimum, on the stage in New York. Tavon, we will miss you.
The man skill set is impressive. I mean I cannnot wait to see how Jeff Fisher and his offensive coaching staff will utilize his talents in that Dome in St. Louis. The NFC WEST is my opinion right now even as weak as the Cardinals are HANDS DOWN the best division in football..
Another fantastic video Doug, keep up the great work.
THIS MAN TAVON IS A BEAST AND THEN HE GOT # 1 THATS HOW U KNO HE IS ON OF THE BEST RB,WR,KR,PR
I really want this guy in Miami. Just imagine the offense with Keller at TE, Wallace's speed, Hartline's crispy routes, and Austin's... well everything.
College football will Never see a duo like Austin and deAnthony Thomas ever again
FAVORITE MOUNTAINEER. i wish he can stay 1 more year
I'm not a WV fan, but after watching this, I will be an Austin fan wherever he goes in the draft.
Tavon is pure athleticism. Look at Mayock's mock draft and everyones projections...TA is ahead of dudes 8" taller than him! Why? BECAUSE HE IS A PLAY MAKER, GAME CHANGER and BEAST. Players dominate, everyone else just hopes to catch a glimpse of your greatness and mimic it. Nuff said...
Forever my favorite hug light video
The song is "Midnight City- M83"
in other news, I'd love to see him on my Browns or Seahawks. I saw him play Saturday against Kansas and I can flat out say I've never seen a more dynamic player.
We still fuckin lost this game.....
Anyone else excited to see him in the NFL next year? He may not be that big in terms of size, but his speed and vision will hopefully land him a good team :D
If there's a better single game performance in the history of NCAA football, I'd like to see it.
some nfl team is gonna get a beast, gonna miss seeing him in the old gold an blue
bailey as a receiver, tavon as a all around playmaker. both should have great nfl careers.
Can't wait until you make the senior highlights!!! Good shit bro
It’s 2022 and I’m back to re-watch how nasty Tavon is
Tavon Austin's high school scouting report said this: "Trying to tackle Austin is like catching a rabbit in a cornfield. He has a tremendous ability to shift gears and accelerate in the open field. He is a great cutback runner, because of his shiftiness and vision." I'd say Oklahoma would verify that this is not an exaggeration.
im addicted to this video, i cant stop watching it. ahaha good video bud.
This was the greatest offensive performance in the history of modern college football. No hyperbole, just the truth.
Not sure where that assessment comes from or what that even means. If you're referencing the part where he is dancing on the sideline, you should know it was when "Jump Around" was playing shortly after WVU had taken the lead in the 4th quarter, and the entire stadium was absolutely rocking.
Yup, I figured that it was before the combine, and u are absolutely correct...I'll take that 32nd pick every yr. it means youre team champs!!! I was thinking Ravens, may take T'eo, but not after his combine performance. Man, he ran an abysmal 4.8 in the 40!
this deserves more views!!
great video you put together
trust he going to be a legend
Him and bailey are making me watch the rams this year
I dont wanna ever hear somebody say that Deanthony Thomas is better than Tavon again
Ah, one my fav songs and players !!!
Was Tavon even nominated for an ESPY for this amazing performance?
UNBELIEVABLE
