After we scored and kicked the extra point, I was so nervous about the kick-off I was almost hyperventilating! And to my horror, we gave up a long kick-off return. But then it was called back for holding and I was able to breathe easier again.

What a rush! What a win! A moment over 100 years in the making.

I was in high school in Rhame when the Sioux won that game. I was yelling so loud on the long catch and run to the one yard line and again on the touchdown that I literally lost my voice!! What an exciting game and to watch it again was so cool. Great game!

I was at that game! Easily my favorite Sioux sports memory.

When Luke broke that first tackle, I went absolutely ballistic and I am pretty sure I jumped on the foot of guy next to me about 50 times.

Good stuff. After the touchdown, somehow Al Pearson was able to get on the field--before the game ended--and stood on the players bench waving these little American flags we were given (it was just a couple months after 9/11).

Even though the run was called back for holding, how about that tackle Peterka made on the kickoff return?

I get goosebumps typing about it. ???:p

I finally got a chance to watch this. Wow! My heart started racing on the 4th and 4 play. I remember watching the game during a baby shower for our first child and thinking the game was over when Grand Valley went ahead with less than 3 minutes left. That has to be the greatest game in Sioux football history, especially the way the final minutes unfolded.
