    A totally subjective, no logic used, I-just-happen-to-like-these-plays Top Ten list of crazy endings to Mountaineer football wins that came on the final play at the last second..
    Well, some aren't so crazy, but most ARE. Also, there's an Easter egg in there of an ending I forgot to label or take out.
    All media are the property of their respective owners, which in this case would be Fox, ESPN, ABC, CBS, West Virginia University, Joe Nagy, and Funimation and Paradise Lunch for the song "Guns & Roses" from the Baccano! anime. (The cool sax music over the title cards.)

    As others have said beating Texas AT TEXAS in 2018 by essentially scoring 3 times in a row then Grier throwing the horns down is the best in my 3decades of football!

    "Great list. A few others I remember: Phil Brady's fake punt vs. Georgia;
    Geno Smith's comeback vs. Marshall; Pat White's run vs. Louisville in
    2007"
    "Geno Smith against Marshall? I honestly thought it might be in contention for one of the top 3 spots."
    "Bad list solely for leaving out Grier to Jennings @ texas"
    I really appreciate the feedback, and those were all great plays. However, the theme of the video was "games won on the last-second play". Brady's Run was epic, but we still had to run a few minutes off the clock. Geno's comeback at Marshall was another classic, but the 2-pt conversion only got WVU to overtiime, where Marshall's kicker missed a FG to give WVU the win. Pat White was a college football GOD, but still, that fantastic run for the go-ahead score was not the final play of the game.
    Grier's 2-pt conversion run is worthy of inclusion though, so I'll re-edit the video. Maybe roll Lambert's three last-second FGs for wins into one segment?

    OK, OK, stop yelling at me! Im going to add Grier's 2-pt conversion to beat Texas... into the #2 spot, because nothing beats that 1994 Pitt game.
    I love the feedback this video is getting, and the suggestion for Grier's 2-pt conversion to be added to the list is a great one. But focus needs to be kept: this video dais about OMG! last-second wins. Danny Buggs going 69 yards with a punt for a winning TD as time expires. The kick to beat Pitt in '75, and again in 2009!
    A game is always won by somebody on the last play. The stuff of Broehm on the 2-pt conversion try in the 3rd OT in '05 Louisville; Pat White taking a knee in the '06 Sugar Bowl (did anyone else wonder if Lynn Swann was ever going to shut up so that we could watch the game? Nearly missed Steve Slaton's 2nd TD!)
    What I was going for was a dramatic, shocking finish to games: long punt returns; watching Penn State in '84 driving for what most of us figured would be a late TD to give WVU yet another last-minute loss, but then LARRY HOLLEY OUT OF NOWHERE! and the pick, and the game ending with 60,000 fans on the field and Joe Pa and his kids running off the field as the final seconds ticked off.
    Anyway, I am going to re-edit this video, roll Lambert's great kicks into one segment and stick Grier in there, somewhere. I'll get to that right after I finish up my latest video, a nearly-45-minute epic on every 17-14 game the Mountaineers have played in. Why 17-14? Because many of our most glorious wins were 17-14 scores, and I thought that was worth remembering.
