In reply to: His 99 yard pick six vs Purdue (75?) wasn’t bad either. * posted by Tpm81

Ingrained in my memory forever was watching that play on my roommate's extremely grainy black and white TV and the cheers throughout the entire dorm.

It was the fourth quarter and we were only leading 3-0 and Purdue would have taken the lead. Things looked very dire until Luther picked off that pass and ran it back.
