Late entry for Catch of the Year goes to Verlan Hunter of Grambling State in the Celebration Bowl. Grambling State capped off a strong 11-1 season with a 10-9 win over North Carolina Central. Hunter finished with 4 catches for 35 yards, but this stupidly athletic catch didn’t add to the stat considering it was negated due to a penalty on GS. Regardless, this is some superhero shit.
