While the game is now in the rearview mirror, tight end Ben Koyack and quarterback Everett Golson were kind enough to relive their 4th-and-11 winning touchdown connection for NBC’s production team.
In a play that will be remembered for decades, the senior tight end ran to the corner of the end zone and found himself uncovered, a bust in Stanford’s coverage that cost the Cardinal the game. But it took a perfect throw from Golson, who spotted Koyack early, rolling to his left before throwing the perfect pass.
