Wow.
Stanford’s junior receiver Francis Owusu only caught 11 passes in his sophomore season last year, and not a single one of them was in the endzone. Tonight he found the endzone in the most sensational way possible, by wrapping his arms around his defender and pinning the ball to his back.
The craziest part, that catch was at the tail end of a reverse to the quarterback and trickeration feels like an understatement.
What was supposed to be a clash of conference rivals turned out to be a rout, as Stanford dominated UCLA, 56-35.
