Michigan wide receiver Roman Wilson pulled in one of the most impressive touchdown catches you’re likely to see this season.
On a 29-yard dime from Wolverines quarterback J.J. McCarthy to the end zone, Wilson leaped into the air over Nebraska defensive back Isaac Gifford to grab the ball and somehow hauled it in for the touchdown while falling and still hanging on to the Cornhuskers defender.
It was an incredible display of athleticism and concentration from Wilson to keep the ball in his possession while going to the ground, and Gifford was just along for the ride as Wilson mossed him in stunning fashion.
OH MY GOODNESS ROMAN WILSON 😱

Like, holy moly, Michigan. That’s going to be one of the most incredible touchdown catches of the year, and it got the Wolverines started off in the best way possible on the road at Nebraska.
Wilson can expect to see his catch on ESPN plenty this week as it’ll certainly make the SportsCenter list of top plays.
CFB fans were amazed by this catch.
