And so we end this journey fittingly with one of Joes most memorable wins. And now even the NCAA acknowledges that it actually happened. Dont miss the video with ABCs great tribute to the greatest football coach of all time -- Joseph Vincent Paterno. Vacated Win #83 Oct. 25, 2008 13-6 over Ohio State It was literally the fumble heard (and seen) around the college football world. Mark Rubin, who had already recorded 11 tackles, stripped the ball from Terrelle Pryors hands in the fourth quarter and the #3 Nittany Lions went on to score 10 points in the final 6:25 to beat #10 Ohio State 13-6 before 105,711 in The Shoe and 7.35 million households -- the 7th largest regular season prime time ABC audience ever. The play was then re-broadcast all week on ESPN as the Pontiac Game Changing Play of the week. After the game a disconsolate Pryer said, I cant explain this. I just didnt hold the ball. I saw the end zone. It was there and the ball was just knocked out of my hands. I thought I was on my way to a touchdown but I just lost the ball. As soon as I fumbled it, I knew they would score. Backup quarterback Pat Devlin had to replace an injured Darryl Clark, but he didnt miss a beat driving the Lions to two scores and their thrilling win. https://m.youtube/watch?v=fFKn2d2hYXM&autoplay=1
