Nah he had one in the endzone that year or maybe that game that was better.

The catch in the 2013 game was more improbable than that one.


Both were absolutely incredible, though. The two best catches I've ever seen live.

Jarvis Landry had far better hands than Odell. Odell was just a better athlete overall.

That back shoulder one handed grab was an awesome catch, but i bet you he could make that catch 8 out of 10 times, as well as many other good receivers.

I still have no idea how he caught this one. as you watch the ball get closer, you wonder how on earth could he find a way to even prevent the interception, much less catch the ball.

I think it's the most improbably catch ever. If you replay that exact scenario 10 times again, i'd be shocked if he caught it once.

How I reacted these catches, which I find describes each one rather nicely...

2012 - HOLY shite WHAT AN INCREDIBLE CATCH

2013 - WTF JUST HAPPENED HOW DID HE CATCH THAT BALL

OBJ catching a kickoff with one hand from the back of the endzone is still tops for me.

That was also the play that Zach Mettenberger tore his ACL on. In one play it looked like Arkansas sealed the game by taking out our quarterback and picking it off. Zach followed through all the way and Jarvis obviously came up big down the field. God I miss the 2012-2013 Tigers. Easily the most talented teams we've had since 2011.

Thank you! Thank you for posting this.

I honestly believe this is the greatest catch I have ever seen at any level of football.

My reaction to it was: oh shite, interception... crap, Mett..maybe Landry can knock it away...he caught it! oh my God he caught it !!!

The person who made this catch truly loves the game. Just amazing!
