Out of bounds alley-oop passes are always the best, but this one by Ohio State's Sam Thompson against Morehead State is an early candidate for best dunk of the college season.

Thompson comes streaking down the lane like he's been shot out of a cannon, leaving his unsuspecting defender frozen in horror as he realizes what's about to happen. Thompson's teammate recognizes it, waits until he's close enough to the basket, and then lobs the perfect pass from just behind the out of bounds line to the left of the hoop. Thompson goes all Odell Beckham Jr., catching the ball with one hand and simultaneously throwing it down as violently as possible. The bench loses its shit, as does some random dude in the crowd who looks like that sorority girl he sits next to in class just said, "Your name is Jimmy, right?"

Ally-oops are the best.
