A mixture of a hug and pure skill.
There are just some things in sport that cannot be explained. Like how certain Premier League players are still able to earn a living without being able to use their standing foot for more than putting a sock and boot on and how some American footballers can make the most difficult thing look easy.
We were pretty sure that Odell Beckham Junior had given us the Touchdown catch to end TD catches with this effort
Yeah it was good, it was impressive, but could have done it with a beefy defender right in front of him. We’re not so sure but there’s zero doubt that Odell’s catch is very much in the shade after this effort from Francis Owusu for Stanford last night in their college football game against UCLA Bruins

Kevin Hogan is the man who supplied the pass to the rushing Owusu who managed to catch the ball, and keep his hands on it, despite bing blocked by Jaleel Wadood in the end zone.
Twitter exploded with most people not really sure what just happended.

Are you kidding me?! I hope you're still awake, because Stanford's Francis Owusu just delivered the unquestioned catch of the year.

That was Francis Owusu of Stanford and Oaks Christian with the catch of the year.
