With two minutes remaining in the 1996 inaugural Big XII Championship game, Texas is leading 21-point favorite Nebraska, 30-27. Texas head coach, John Mackovic, makes the gutsiest playcall in college football history instead of punting, which would've given Nebraska (who had all the momentum) a chance to win the game on a game-ending drive. It's 4th Down & Inches from Texas' 29 yardline. Texas beat a Nebraska program that won national championships in 1994, 1995, and 1997 with legendary head coach Tom Osborne. Texas' third-string running back Priest Holmes scored three touchdowns. Ricky Williams, the 1998 Heisman Trophy winner, was the featured back for Texas along with mobile quarterback James Brown.
