Doug Flutie through the years
The Miracle in Miami, 25 years later
It was 25 years ago today that former Boston College quarterback Doug Flutie threw the legendary Hail Mary pass to receiver Gerard Phelan to give the Eagles a thrilling 47-45 last-second win over the University of Miami. In a recent interview with ESPN's Brent Musburger, Flutie says that even though it's been 25 years, it's a rare day when the Hail Mary is not brought up in conversation. "I know the average is well over once a day," he told Musburger. "There may be a day that goes by where it doesn't come up, but they're few and far between." Here's a look back at Doug Flutie through the years.
