Remember gthe Alamo Bowl

He was the back-up quarterback -- a walk on -- playing the last game of his senior year shortly after his father died and four years into a checkered athletic career. Bram Kohlhausen was not emotionally prepared when tapped to start in the 2016 Alamo Bowl after Texas Christian University's star QB was arrested for punching a San Antonio cop in a bar fight. Behind 31-0 against the 5th ranked Oregon Ducks at halftime, Bram won the game in its third overtime. This legendary matchup is considered perhaps the most riveting of comebacks in college bowl history. This legendary redemption story goes far beyond Notre Dame's Rudy tale.
