This may be the craziest play to ever end a football game. It certainly stirs up memories of "The Play" between Cal and Stanford from 1982.

A Duke touchdown with just six seconds left gave the No. 22 Blue Devils a 27-24 edge, all but ensuring a victory over unranked Miami. However, the Hurricanes, playing their first game since the firing of head coach Al Golden, found themselves a miracle.

The play featured eight laterals and took the Hurricanes all the way back to the shadow of their own goal posts before Corn Elder shocked the world, and especially the hometown Duke fans, and took the return 91 yards for a touchdown.

A lengthy review followed with the referees checking to see both if a Miami returner had a knee down and if there was a block in the back as was initially called. The touchdown would stand on review though, giving Miami one of the most improbable wins you will ever see.

Even Michigan State would agree with that.
