No 17: ‘Miracle’ strikes twice

FAYETTEVILLE — Everybody loves a good Hail Mary for the win.

Unless you’re on the wrong side of it.

The Arkansas Razorbacks were on the right side of it on the day after Thanksgiving 2008, with Casey Dick’s heave hitting London Crawford in the end zone for a 24-yard touchdown with 21 seconds remaining to give Arkansas a big lift at the end of Coach Bobby Petrino’s debut season.

Arkansas had no shot at a bowl, but the Razorbacks played with passion in the 2008 finale for Bobby Petrino, who cited this game as a springboard in recruiting and for what was to come.
