Mount Union’s undefeated season was alive by a sliver.
A Hail Mary was in order and delivered for the 9-0 Purple Raiders, who fell behind when Baldwin Wallace scored a TD with 22 seconds left.
The pass was thrown by quarterback Braxton Plunk.
The football hits off the helmet of a Baldwin Wallace player and the deflection is caught by Wayne Ruby Jr. for the game-winning touchdown:
The Purple Raiders had a 23-21 victory and a 10-0 regular season.
One for the history books! What a way to clinch your 33rd OAC Title outright, 31st undefeated regular season, and 33rd NCAA Playoff appearance!#GoMountGo #SCTop10
