Bo Jackson…if he got a step on you he couldn’t be caught.” The rematch of Auburn in Austin in 1984 is known for Jerry Gray taking Bo Jackson out of the Heisman Trophy race. Jackson broke free and raced down the east sideline at Memorial Stadium when Gray ran him down and in the process Jackson separated his shoulder. The basically ended Jackson's junior season. He looked Jerry up after the game to assure him he considered it clean hit.

Bo miscalculated on that play. I guarantee you that if that run was against Alabama, even Jerry Gray wouldn’t have caught him if he was wearing Crimson!
