I remember watching this happen back in 08-09 and laughing my arse off as it happened. No clue what Casey Dick was thinking here

The JJ pass was the GOAT.

I had seen a few of his. Then right after I posted this thread I remembered this gem. To Jefferson's credit, he had someone in the vicinity and it wasn't a pick 6

It looks like he was panicking at the defender closing in on him and tried to throw it out of bounds

Jordan Jefferson threw a forward pass.

Jeremy Johnson threw a backwards pass with a forward throwing motion.

Johnson wins. Or loses.

JJ was a huge Saints fan growing up, so he figured while in Louisiana he would do his impersonation of the GOAT Saints QB, Aaron Brooks

Don’t have a clip, but Reggie Ball of GT, in UGA territory..late 4th qtr..down 6..on 4th down..sails one into the stands to avoid a sack. That’s the dumbest play ever.

JJ also broke the dudes hip so at least he got his too.

And then they lost to freaking Wake Forest the next week in the ACCCG.
Roman Reigns was a defensive captain on that team. He destroyed Auburn in 05.

I remember thinking he just panicked and threw it to the wrong guy. This was Petrino's first season and he was still learning the playbook.

That was a pretty hideous pass. Kid had good wheels mind you.

For the Casey Dick pass I think he either was trying to throw it out of bounds and didn't put enough mustard on it, or he thought the WR was running a curl and would turn back for the ball. Still, the Dick brothers get a pass for all that because they were part of the greatest sports headline ever. "Nutt pulls out Johnson, puts in Dick."

Its true, I always like to remind LSU fans that just a few drives after that pass, Jeremy Johnson broke a 70 yard TD run right up the middle nearly untouched the whole way

I'm going to assume that was a headline on the Internet, because most newspapers are still too staid to take the innuendo quite that far.
