Yes, Nebraska fans, Saturday night's last-second Hail Mary was real. There's no need to check your eyes, that was third-string quarterback Ron Kellogg III throwing a 57-yard bomb to redshirt freshman Jordan Westerkamp, he of zero career touchdowns. Just as Bo Pelini and Tim Beck drew it up, right? Relive all the reaction to the memorable finish in this post.

But, let's not forget, the Hail Mary wouldn't have been possible without this play:
