Texas’ missed field goal at the end of regulation in last week’s double-overtime win over Arizona State in the Peach Bowl College Football Playoff semifinal game brought up bad memories for former Alabama running back Damien Harris.

But it wasn’t just because the Longhorns’ Bert Auburn missed a 38-yard field goal as time expired, sending the game to overtime where Texas eventually won 39-31. It was the way Longhorns coach Steve Sarkisian spoke to Auburn just before the fateful kick that caught Harris’ attention.

During the Until Saturday podcast this week with David Ubben and Chris Vannini of The Athletic, Harris said he had a similar experience during the January 2018 College Football National Championship Game vs. Georgia. With the game tied 20-20 at the end of regulation, Harris approached Andy Pappanastos and had a similar conversation just before the Alabama kicker took the field to try a 36-yard game-winner (which he also missed).

“As soon as I saw Sark walk up to Bert, I said ‘that’s a mistake,’” Harris said. “… When we played Georgia in the national championship, we had a chip shot to win the game. … And I remember, I walked up to (Pappanastos) the same way Sark walked up to Bert Auburn. And I put my arm around him and said ‘listen dude, you’re about to win us the national championship. How does that feel?’

“You know what he did? And I should have known when he did this, that some s*** was gonna be shaky. He just looked at me and he just gave me a hug. He was like ‘thank you, man.’ And it seemed like I gave him a vote of confidence that he already didn’t have. And he just went out and he f****** botched the kick. I’m taking full responsibility.”

As with Auburn and the Longhorns, Pappanastos’ Alabama teammates bailed him (and Harris) out in overtime. After Georgia kicked a field goal to go up 23-20, Alabama’s Tua Tagovailoa threw the game-winning touchdown to DeVonta Smith on second-and-26, giving the Crimson Tide a walk-off national championship.

Harris, whose Alabama career ended after the 2018 season, played five years in the NFL with the New England Patriots and Buffalo Bills. In addition to his podcasting work, he’s now a college football analyst for CBS Sports.
