Default For those missing football: 2009 college championship - Florida vs. Alabama

Ok fans, this is it. Urban Meyer's Florida Gators against Nick Saban's resurgent Alabama Crimson Tide. The game is on the line here with 3 seconds to go in the 4th quarter and Alabama hanging onto a 24-20 lead, but the Gators are on Bama's 2 yard line with their last time out called.

Urban whispers a prayer, please God, PLEASE give me a sign, PLEASE.
And he hears a voice "Urban, call a slant through the right tackle"
Urban thinks, "really , that's a horrible play"
The Voice replies "it's a winner , Urban, guaranteed to answer your prayer"

So Meyer calls a run, off the right tackle. The running back is sacked for a 1 yard loss and Auburn wins the National Championship.

Urban, through his tears, cries, "why God, why? what happened?"
And The Voice replies "I'm not sure, hold a moment. Hey Bear, what happened on that play?"
