Kick FG now. On first down

 

[WestCoastWildcat]

Nice catch. Amazing Bryant is back in this game.

 

[DaCat]

Looks like Big Ben is okay!

 

[Deeringfish]

Henning has been good, but that is his biggest catch.

 

[WestCoastWildcat]

Holy cow! What a catch!

 

[Deeringfish]

Don't lose yards!

 

[Deeringfish]

OH WOW!

[EvanstonCat]

Thank you Ben Bryant.

Somebody somewhere is going to talk about Bajakian and our offense being good enough for us to win. SMH

Armon Binns is the best WR coach in NU history

Bryant with great play as likely final play for NU

 

[zeek55]

I'm speechless, what an incredible season.

Ben Bryant has the heart of a champion. I'll never forget the effort he put into this game to bring home this bowl trophy.

 

[EvanstonCat]

MVP.

Ben Bryant is the best QB we have had in years. Better than Thorson. Maybe not as good as Persa Strong when he was healthy. But we will miss him.

Gotta get a QB in the portal. Just gotta.

[Darren72]

Ben Bryant is a Cats hero.

 

[Hungry Jack]

Beautiful win. Beautiful season. A triumph.

 

[Rodenthater]

Wow…just wow!!!

 

[Deeringfish]

I think this has been the most remarkable season I can remember. I'm, 68 went to games with my dad in the early 60's. He was a letterman in football. (not a player but things were different in 1939)

 

[phatcat_rivals223240]

It's a W. Win ugly Cats

 

[WestCoastWildcat]

Amazing season. Congratulations to the players and the coaches. If you had told me we’d go 8-5 with a bowl win I’d just shake my head. Bryant really sacrificed himself for the win. I hope he is ok. We outplayed the Utes in all phases today. So happy for the team. Our hc demonstrates what real leadership looks like. Go Cats! A well-deserved win to cap off an amazing season.

Ben Bryant is a Cats hero.

Forever a legend here for what he (and this team) accomplished this season.

Massive turnaround and finishing 8-5 with a bowl win.

I couldn't have imagined a season like this in August. These Cats fought like hell all season and this game was no different.

I'm honestly shocked Bryant came back from what looked like a concussionary blow. And to put his body on the line for that final play to secure the win..., just a phenomenal effort from him all year to lead this team.

This season is arguably the most shocking season I've seen in my years supporting the program. Can't be happier for the players and Braun and the staff.

We will feel better when Baj is fired,

Congrats to the players and coaching staff. What a great game and a great season.

CATS WIN! CATS WIN! CATS WIN!!!

In spite of a Pop Warner-level OC calling the wrong plays at the right downs... Now to celebrate... then to secure an OC candidate who wants to forge something lasting. Don't know who would buy-in to this situation, but David B. as HC is a definite draw to sign a quality OC to set the table for years of potential success. W-O-W!!!

The Ute is available

Sure hope this gives recruiting a huge boost!

All else equal, winning more helps recruiting. Winning nationally televised games in prime time is good too.
