-Jose Mohler to Justin Howard at Youngstown in 2010 with 34 seconds left (6-5 and out of the playoffs if that doesn’t happen)
-Travis Beck forced fumble and Kyle Emanuel return for TD against UNI in 2011 (David Johnson fumbled, UNI ranked #2; first win over UNI after joining the Valley)
-RB screen to DJ McNorton in the natty that went for a TD (all the pub goes to the fake punt one play before)
-The 3rd and 11 during “The Drive” at Kansas State where Billy Turner blocks two guys
-John Crockett 80 yard TD run vs. Iowa State (down 14-0 at the time, momentum did a 180)
-Chris Board recovering the second half kickoff vs. Illinois State in the natty (got a field goal, won by 2)
-Vraa’s catch on 4th and 8 on the sideline vs Northern Iowa in 2015 (set up Shepherd in the corner for the win)
-Nick DeLuca’s diving pick against Jacksonville State (seemed like that stepped on their throat)
-Designed QB run on the first play of final drive at Iowa (watch how the LB follows the RB to the sideline and opens the whole middle of the field)
-Josh Hayes “under-physicalling” both Stapelton Bros.
