Bowling Green receiver Ryan Burbrink was tightly covered, but that didn’t stop him from snatching this pass one-handed near the sideline.

Amari Cooper was unstoppable on Saturday, catching 10 passes for 201 yards and three touchdowns. Maybe Florida cornerback Vernon Hargreaves III should have rethought his approach to covering Alabama’s top wideout on Saturday.
