CHARLOTTE, NC – Iconic broadcaster Jack Buck capped off game one of the 1988 World Series with one of the most memorable calls of all time after Kirk Gibson’s home run shocked the Oakland Athletics.
“I don’t believe what I just saw. I don’t BELIEVE what I just saw.”
I hear ya, Jack. I hear ya.
Clemson took a 24-7 lead into the half, but when Jay Haynes was injured on the opening kickoff of the second half, any semblance of a running game went with him. The Tigers tried, to not much avail, but SMU racked up 265 yards of offense in the second half and eventually tied the score at 31-31 with just 16 seconds remaining.
