Premature touchdown celebration results in incredible touchdown for other team

Utah Utes wide receiver Kaelin Clay on Saturday snared a long reception that ended in a touchdown — just not for his team.

Clay showboated as he ran free to the end zone, accidentally dropping the football just before crossing the goal line. As he and his teammates celebrated, an alert Oregon Ducks defense scooped up the fumble and ran it all the way back for an unbelievable touchdown. -- Jon Terbush
