62. Hoosier Stunner
Tim Wilbur leads Indiana to first bowl victoryDec. 21, 1979: A play that began auspiciously ended beautifully for the Indiana Hoosiers. Indiana trailed BYU 37-31 with 6:53 left in the 1979 Holiday Bowl when a BYU punt hit Indiana's Craig Walls in the back. Tim Wilbur collected the ball near the sideline and raced 62 yards untouched to the end zone for what turned out to be the winning score. Indiana stunned undefeated BYU 38-37 for its first bowl victory, capping its first winning season since 1968.
