I like this one as well
BEFORE PLAYING IN the 2017 Famous Idaho Potato Bowl, Wyoming and Central Michigan faced off in a bowling alley. The starting offenses and defenses for both teams would bowl, and then they would see who had the highest combined scores at the end.
Josh had missed the final two regular-season games with a sprained right shoulder and was the last person to bowl. Wyoming needed a strike or it would lose the game. Things had gotten chippy between the two teams throughout the game, so the tension was rising.
No pressure.
Josh stood up, took the ball, threw it and didn't even watch to see how many pins he hit. Instead, he turned around and walked off, of course hitting a perfect strike.
His teammates went wild celebrating. He brought a level of confidence, swagger back to the team.
The coaches picked up on it the next day at practice, noticing the team looked completely different.
The Cowboys went on to win 37-14, with Josh throwing three touchdown passes and being named MVP.
Up on the stage after the game, accepting his MVP trophy, Josh was asked, "What's next for you?"
His teammates yelled, "Do it! Do it!"
After a pause and with a smile, Josh said, "I will be declaring for the 2018 NFL draft."
