OTF Premium Discussion: All-time clutch Texas moments

[Hank South]

In honor of Victoria Hunter's pinch hit home run on Saturday to keep Texas softball alive, I was thinking where it ranks all-time among cutch Texas moments. 

Let's hear them! 

[Hank South]

I will take low hanging fruit of 4th and 5, which is obviously the No. 1 all-time clutch moment in Texas history.

Chance Wheeless’ walk off home run against Baylor in the 2005 Men’s College World Series Semifinals to send Texas to the National Championship series against Florida comes to mind for me.

A certain field goal against a certain team in a certain stadium as a fond farewell.

Street to Peschel on 4th and 3 to put the Longhorns in position to beat Arkansas in the defacto 1969 National Championship game (Tricky Dick said so, gotta be true).

For an "All Time Clutch" moment it needs to be a play that leads to a national championship, I feel.  This was the best for me prior to 4th and 5.

I wonder if even 5% of the readers here are old enough to remember watching on TV (or attending the game)? 

Fun starts at 1:40 mark with Texas trailing 14-0, then the big play a bit later.  Enjoy.

This might be recency bias, but Quinn’s 4th and 13 throw has to be up there.

Adding 1 second on the clock against Nebraska that was clutch lol ( was at that game )

[Quinncent McManning, Jr.]

Roll left against Nebraska in the 96 b12 title game.

Not as big as some others but a fun one. Goal line stand in OT vs Kansas State in 2023, needed to win for the 4 team CFP

[McCoy2Shipley]

With postseason for baseball going on currently, Ivan Melendez 3R HR against Mississippi st in the CWS is a big one to me
