The radio call of Appalachian State's Hail Mary is incredible

Appalachian State pulled off a big win for the second week in a row, and nothing captured the excitement surrounding Saturday’s victory better than the home team’s radio call.

Appalachian State beat Troy 32-28 on a Hail Mary they completed from their 47-yard line with no time left. It wasn’t just a Hail Mary pass that was caught in the end zone; they actually executed a tip-and-block perfectly!

Take a listen to the radio call from Adam Witten on Learfield Sports and tell me it didn’t put a big smile on your face.

“A miracle on the mountain Part 2!” Witten said in his call.

The excitement, the elation, the celebration. That was awesome.

This Hail Mary win came a week after the school upset Texas A&M, which led to a huge celebration on campus. It also resulted in ESPN coming to the school for “GameDay.”
