The Miracle Bowl catch by Clay Brown, the Beck-to-Harline prayer in 2006 and the game-winning catch by Kelly Smith in 1984 to beat Michigan to win a national title; all are moments BYU fans have permanently etched on their memories.
Now, thanks to a new video released by the official YouTube channel of Brigham Young University Athletics, fans can relive "the legacy of BYU Football,” according to the video’s description.
The film, titled “BYU Football Legacy,” calls to memory highlights from the past few decades of BYU football, including a list of titles and awards the team has received.
The “BYU Legacy” is made up of 57 all-Americans, the sixth all-time winningest coach (LaVell Edwards), 23 conference championships, one national championship (1984), 34 bowl games, and the fifth most Football Bowl Subdivision (FBS) wins since 1975.
In addition to Edwards and the all-American players, the BYU football team members have been recipients of individual awards such as the Heisman Trophy (Ty Detmer), two Outland trophies (Jason Buck and Mohammed Elewonibi), one Doak Walker award (Luke Staley), four Davey O’Brien awards (Jim McMahon, Steve Young, and Ty Detmer twice), and 7 Sammy Baugh awards (Gary Scheide, Marc Wilson, Jim McMahon, Steve Young, Robbie Bosco, Ty Detmer and Steve Sarkisian).
