- The Nelson Miracle - ESPN Utah State at BYU - 9/30/11. Junior back-up QB Riley Nelson replaces starter Jake Heaps and overcomes an 11 pt. Aggie lead by marching 96 yards in a little over 2 min to squash the Utah State upset bid. BYU wins 27-24 in regulation.
I wish there was a rule against crappy music on youtube videos.
the best part is, that Nelson used to go to Utah State but then transfered to BYU after his mission
I wonder how many times Riley Nelson has watched this video.
Not sure why I just watched this. Brings back bad memories.
Its hard to tell the USU fans apart from the BYU fans.
First game I ever went to what a game
When BYU played Utah in 2001 Gary Crowtons first year when Luke Staley got in with about a minute and 20 seconds left the game it was louder. I have had season tickets since 1993 and that game was the loudest i have ever heard the stadium. Check out the video i got so loud the camera started to shake. BYU vs. Utah 2001
It was Riley's best moment in his collegiate career. It shows, however, that even he needed two miracles to perform what BYU expects from its QBs.
I think Riley would and should have gone down in history as one of the legends at BYU. Maybe not up there at the pinnacle with McMahon, Young, and Detmer, but on par with Sark, Hall, and Beck. But there are two strikes against him, the whole Heaps-Nelson controversy, and the fact that he lost games because he wouldn't bench himself even though he was seriously hindered by injuries. That's the difference between him and the sainted Taysom Hill, who also should have been up there except for injuries.
what i love is that like the tulsa game, the winning td was caught with 11 seconds left.... :o
I was at that game - good times. #BYU
So glad we kept Riley.
Great Game!
Its funny how Jake Heaps got sidelined he had his helmet off. Once the team was scoring all of a sudden he had his helmet on.... No way you're not going back in.
I was at that game! So exciting!
Jake Heaps just never had it. He had all the talent in the world but he didn't ever have the support of his team or even a connection with them. Sad. Amazing talent but he just couldn't get it done on the field.
Oh man. I was THERE! I really don't think LaVell Edwards stadium has ever been louder! Riley Nelson > Tim Tebow.
Sorry but no. Not ever 😂
music driving ne nuts
Great game BYU won against a talented Utah state team.
Well BYU hasn't been slowing down at all, being one of the winningest programs over the past decade, with that looking to continue. (Seeing as we've only really lost to TCU, Utah and Florida St over the past few years. Well Utah St too, but still...)
Utah St on the other hand has been improving. A lot too. With MWC action they'll only get better, so they could very well be a decent team over the next 10-15 years.
BYU seems to have a knack for this sort of thing.
AWESOME GAME!
I love your music choices.
How can you not like this ending?
I like the sound track
Robert Turbin and Bobby Wagner have probably forgot this game even existed. Because they play for the best team in the NFC :)
Hah I was there. Pretty great game
I fucking love football.
Where is the 50-yards to Mckay Jacobsen miracle from the final possession of the USU game? Or the bounce-off-the-helmet to Marcus Matthews final touchdown a few minutes later?
Too bad for USU. They lost so many games like this all season. They're program is headed in the right direction though. Soon there will be three ballin' football teams in Utah
i loved it
Oh it's always some miracle, even when the zoobs barely beat a team they should have no problem with.
The cardiac kids are at it again I see. Great game BYU...Now do we get them again next week?
the funny thing is that Riley Nelson is from Utah state.
It was a miracle that some offense showed up. Heaps was not a good fit for the program - either that or he was put in way too soon. But that happens when you have a press conference announcing your commitment and are the top-ranked QB on the scout.com hype engine. Did BYU learn nothing from Ben Olson?
The Aggies should get pay back up in Logan this upcoming season.
And some people think this is not a rivalry.... please explain to be how?
i was at the game like this if you were too
BYU has a lot better team so dont count on it
Receiver had a drop too.
And riley went to utah state before his mission.
It was so much fun going to class that Monday. These little wannabe D1 Aggies were livid after that game.
3:53 and 5:20
Jake Heaps disliked the video.
juniour back up qb for 2011 is a receiver in 2013?
nope
+James Bond yall heard dixie states the trailblazers now
um yeah.. why?
Now if only BYU would get rid of DiLuigi
The word miracle is overused.
@monty287 are you serious?!? DiLuigi is amazing!!
A miracle against Utah State?
Haha heaps transferred, YESSSS!
@alecprestosean
so was I
6:00 You mad bro!?
The mormon bowl.
It all went downhill when he cut his hair...
Yep. Bronco shouldn't have gone with him senior year after he broke his back.
good riddence to jake heaps
nelsontime=tebowmania
49 Utes etc.
Dan Smith.. BYU...
utahlobster why would you trash talk on a video that byu wasn't even playing utah. Byu won this game if you didn't know
1980
probably. just mute it.
dan smith byu
UTES!!!!!!!!
He's a closet cougar. Why else would he watch.
could we get a more annoying song?
Pretty sad that we need a miracle game to beat our little sisters at football. Someone delete this video!
God damn mormons!
The people who liked this aren't real cougar fans. this was the ONLY game I was actually rooting for Byu to lose. I just hate the whole "Riley Nelson Legacy". His last play recorded as a college quarter back was a pick six. Anybody Agree?
Better than jake heaps. And besides, you're the one who's not a true fan. True fans root for BYU, not against a player
Riley Nelson was a good QB. His problem wasn't a lack of skills, but too much ego. He divided the locker room, and he wouldn't take himself out of games when he clearly was too injured to produce, which cost us several games that season.
whats wrong with you man
You may not grasp fully the concept of fandom.
This really does have the worst music ever on it
Jake Heaps is a lazy guy
utah utes>BYU
Agree, Well, Unless They Knew That We Did The Same Thing Vs UDUB, Fire Whittingham For Calling That TO.
