He took the snap, rolled right, and chucked it as far as he could down the field.

In a classic matchup of Big Ten powerhouses, Michigan State and Wisconsin found themselves tied at 31 points a piece with just four seconds left to play in regulation. With that in mind, here’s a look at the five greatest Hail Mary passes in college football history.
Of course, never in a million years, did we expect to be blown away by a Hail Mary pass so early in the year.Īs a result, we thought it’d be only fitting to pay tribute to those unbelievable last-second passes that, not only changed the outcome of the game, but also had us believing in the impossible. Whether it was the big-time programs going out of their way to make a statement, talented players rising to the occasion with memorable performances, or former standouts reminding the rest of the world that they’re the one to watch, this season has had all the makings of a classic. In a way, that’s part of the beauty of the all or nothing play.
