Bo Jackson question for Auburn fans

Although I am a lifelong and loyal Bama fan, one of my favorite athletes ever is Bo Jackson. I was telling my stepson about his one handed catch in the 1982 Tangerine Bowl, and wanted to find a video of it to share, but I have found NOTHING other than a couple of YouTube videos of the complete game, which would mean watching a lot of blurry video for one play.
Anyone know of a clip from that game of the catch? Most highlights I find are Bo playing baseball (which he was also incredible at.) Thanks!

Didn’t he score on the play? I think it happened in the 3rd quarter. I’ve never seen a gif of it though

It is in the Bo, Barkley, and The Big Hurt documentary. I think it is also in the Bo 30 for 30.
They touch on it a little in the doc, but I saw a video years ago of Randy Campbell at a player reunion and he talked about the play. Dummy Jack Crow is telling him to not pitch and keep the ball, even though they have been killing it all game. Coach Dye goes over and grabs Randy by the facemask and says I don't care what you do, you pitch the damn ball to Bo.

If it happened in the 3rd quarter, I found JUST the 3rd quarter on YouTube

Hey! I'm up to FOUR posts now!
I didn't find this site until almost the end of the season. Since it's not NCAAF time right now, I only occasionally take a look.
Besides, I live by the beach. It's a distraction!

I checked the 1st and 3rd quarters and didn't see a pass he caught.
