Revisiting Toledo-BYU 2016: A Michael Jordan flu-game performance from the broadcast booth

I-80 East separates Provo, UT and Toledo, OH and driving along the route would consume roughly 24 hours. BYU and Toledo are distant geographic relatives in the college football spectrum, but the teams’ most recent — and only — meeting in history is sure to revive memories of Cougar and Rocket fans alike. Everyone who watched knew where they were on September, 30, 2016.

Perhaps you recall BYU kicker Rhett Almond’s 19-yard clock-expiring field goal to give the Cougars a 55-53 win. Perhaps you remember Toledo quarterback Logan Woodside fumbling the snap on the 2-point attempt, picking up the ball, and firing a go-ahead pass to Michael Roberts with 1:11 left.
