We called it. The Huskers went to Purify when they needed a touchdown to take the lead in the last minute of the game.
Keep reading to see more angles of Purify's spectacular catch.

What do you do when your receiver drops a ball?? You keep throwing to him.

just wondering if our win, cost you $100 in Vegas as the article alluded to last week? It was worth it....to me at least.

Hi Tyler,
Here's the post-script on Vega$. I wore my lucky green T-shirt and netted out wins both in the Sportsbook and at the tables. I kept the dirty shirt on for two days (despite the B.O.).
I couldn't bring myself to bet against Nebraska, plus I was going to be leaving Caeser's for another Casino at halftime, so if I wanted to cash my ticket (without two more cab rides), I had to make my bet on the outcome of the first half. Since the Huskers start fast, I took the Huskers in a pick 'em first half and came out a big fat winner. I also won my other two football bets. I took Wisconsin over Iowa at halftime and Wake Forest over Florida State. It's great when your biggest regret in Vegas is that you didn't bet more.

Steve,
Glad you made out so well. BTW, these pictures of Mo are amazing. I didn't realize what an acrobatic catch this was. Here's to things continuing to go our way and the team working hard to "make their own luck."
