Published:
We’ve seen plenty of different kinds of plays as people who watch college football. I mean, really.
What haven’t we seen?

Well, on Saturday, there’s a play that took place in the Central Michigan-Northern Illinois game that you may have not seen before. A pass got tipped into the air by a wide receiver and two defenders were colliding together to try and gather the interception.
However, the two players bobbled the ball back into the air and the receiver came back to make a play on the ball. What ended up happening?
All three players caught the ball, but the receiver was the one who got credit for making the catch.
You’ve got to see it:
Have you ever seen THREE PEOPLE catch the ball at the same time?!?
This is one of the craziest first downs you'll ever see. pic.twitter.com/63KRGdcfcG— CBS Sports Network (@CBSSportsNet) November 2, 2019
Maybe later today we’ll see a play where four people catch the ball at the same time!
Doubtful, but, we can hope.
