Alex Henery's 57-yard Field Goal:My Expierence

Now this is a cherished moment in Nebraska Football history!! I will never forget that night. The date Friday,November 26th 2008 is a date they has never left the minds of Husker fans and probably never will. It was the day that the event in the video you are about to watch,happened. I remember the whole thing. I had watched the game from the start and I was glued to the T.V. At first I didn't understand the whole plan. When I heard the announcer say that Henery had to make a 57 yard field goal,I almost fell off the bed!! I thought,"No way!!" When he lined up for the kick,my stomach turned into a tight knot,and I felt that excited nervousness. It almost made me sick.
I wanted to bury my face in the hoody I was holding but at the same time I wanted to watch the game. I lifted my face just in time to see Alex kick the ball and I watched that ball every second it was in the air. And as it slipped threw the left post my heart went to my throat. He had made it!!! I screamed so loud,as I threw my hoody into the air. I had just witnessed one of the greatest moments in Nebraska Football history!! I heard the ESPN announcers say it was the luckiest moment in Husker football history. I disagreed. It could only be one thing...the hand of God. Only God could give somebody the talent to do something like that. Not only had I witnessed one of the greatest moments in Husker football history,I,along with the thousands of Husker fans watching the game,had just witnessed the hand of God. So as you watch this video,I want you think about the awesomeness of God,and as this event unfolds,remember,that God cares about everything. Even Husker football.
