LAS VEGAS - UNLV's last-second, 100-yard fumble return for a shocking victory over Baylor last Saturday has been named the Compaq College Football Play of the Week.

Baylor was leading 24-21 with eight seconds left when it ran a running play to attempt to score again instead of downing the ball to end the game. After running back Darrell Bush ran to the one-yard line, Rebel linebacker Tyler Brickell forced a fumble. Rebel defensive back Kevin Thomas picked up the fumble in the Baylor end zone and, with no time on the clock, raced more than the length of the field for his team's winning points as UNLV prevailed 27-24.

The Play of the Week program is sponsored by the Compaq Computer Corporation and is judged by a panel of sportswriters and sportscasters.
