7. Bo's Juggle Act

Bo Jackson snags Tangerine touchdown

Dec. 18, 1982: Only a freshman, Auburn's Bo Jackson showed the world his vast athletic ability on an acrobatic 7-yard touchdown run against Boston College in the Tangerine Bowl. Quarterback Randy Campbell's option pitch floated over two defenders. Jackson, who was rolling left, reached back behind him and gathered in the pitch one-handed. He immediately broke a tackle, then demonstrated incredible balance along the sideline to stay in bounds and score in Auburn's 33-26 victory.
