This week's Cougar Classic is BYU's Hail Mary victory over Nebraska in 2015. Freshman QB Tanner Mangum came in for Taysom Hill in the 4th quarter and led the team to a last-second victory in Lincoln. This goes down as one of BYU's best wins, especially against a college football powerhouse like the Nebraska Cornhuskers. Matt says watching the game he felt a magic in the air that BYU would get the victory. Mitch says he thought that Taysom Hill's performance in the game was a Heisman-contender type game. 
Norm Chow Play of the Game Award: Mitch picks the Mangum Hail Mary as his play of the game. Matt picks Mangum's 4th and 1 conversion in the 4th quarter, which set up a FG and put BYU within 1. Dallen picks Fred Warner's fumble recovery in the 2nd quarter, which put BYU 20 yards away from the end zone and up 10 points after the drive. 
Andrew George Underrated Player of the Game Award: Dallen picks Bronson Kaufusi, who had a sack and was in the backfield all day. Mitch takes Jonny Linehan, who's first punt was 77 yards. Matt picks Tanner Mangum not because of the game-winning TD, but for all the plays he made to keep BYU in the game as a freshman QB.
