Catch heard 'round two brackets

The upset alert had gone out a few minutes earlier and Mount Union was trying to make it go away with a drive in the closing minutes of its home game against Baldwin-Wallace.

The Play of the Week is sponsored by the City of Salem, hosts of Stagg Bowl XXXIX.

Joe Tait and Harry Paidas on the call.

We solicit video of top plays from every Division III football program and this was our top clip.
