'The Derg-Oh! Game' is a pleasant trip down memory lane

I've seen hundreds upon hundreds of high school football games.

And while each one of them have had their own special charms, some of them stand out more than others.

In all of that time and through all of those games, one game, a 2005 Class 6A quarterfinal contest Morris and Joliet Catholic stands alone as the most memorable matchup in my mind.

And apparently, I'm not alone in that thought process.
