Ohio State punter and Latter-day Saint Drue Chrisman brought fans to their feet and made the stadium roar with cheers at an unforgettable spring game. And no, it wasn't for a 90-yard punt or a trick play. Chrisman surprised everyone at the Ohio State game, including his girlfriend, Avery Eliason, when he pulled out a ring while already on one knee.

During halftime, Chrisman planned a fake contest for Eliason to compete in, having her try to make a field goal. While Eliason approached the ball, Chrisman stopped her, pulling out a ring. Eliason's "yes" roused the loudest applause of the day from the stands. And lucky for all those not in attendance, the cameras were rolling.
"He's the love of my life," Avery says in the video. "Seriously, I have known him since we were little and we've just been through so much and I am just so happy."
