I NEVER get tired of watching these old school “smash mouth” B1G games. I also thought it was pretty cool listening to the entire broadcast without the any cuts. Hearing the old commercials, commentary and and band was taking me back a bit. GO BLUE
It looks like they attributed this TD ( 0:49 ) to Brian Griese. It was actually Scott Dreisbach, in what was his first game as the starting QB. The opponent was Virginia in the old Pig Skin Classic game, and that TD reception was the final play of the game. Mercury Hayes caught that pass as time ran out and Michigan completed what was, at that time, the biggest comeback in Michigan history (it has since been dethroned). With only 11 minutes, or so, left in the 4th quarter, VA was winning 17-0. That game winning TD gave M an 18-17 victory. I had the privilege of being at that game with some friends. It was the greatest Michigan game I had ever been to until 2005 against Penn State. My dad and I had some great seats at the 50 yard line (my cousin gave us those tickets as a gift...that was a great gift).
