After some early struggles, the No. 3 Oklahoma Sooners came up with a 23-16 home win over the Nebraska Cornhuskers Saturday. And along the way, Oklahoma cornerback D.J. Graham made one of the most impressive interceptions imaginable in coverage against Nebraska’s Levi Falck:

All things considered, Graham might have been better off just knocking down this ball. This was fourth and 18, so the interception actually left Oklahoma in worse field position than an incompletion would have. But this was still a remarkably athletic catch, and grabbing the ball this way took out the chances of a Nebraska player coming up with it. It definitely made for an impressive highlight, too.
