Leading 7-0 already with just over three minutes remaining in the first half it was Ian Book again looking for what has become his favorite target, none other than Chase Claypool who brought in the longest reception of his four-year career.

Finally, Claypool put the icing on the cake with his fourth touchdown on the afternoon, making the score 45-3. It was one of the best balls Book has thrown this season and the talented Claypool made an incredibly athletic move to not just pull the ball in, but to get his feet down in-bounds as well.
We're sure you've already heard this one before but…
