Wont start pls help : )

I would like to say HI to everyone. I love fords right now i have an 1996 Econoline 250 van for work. Today i was driving it and the exhaust from the CAT back fell off, and the van died and wont start now. It will crank and crank, but will not turn over. I noticed the only thing holding it on was the wires going to the O2 sensor (i am guessing its the o2). I have the exhaust back in place clamped up and back into the CAT.

I was wondering if the reason it wont start is becayse somehting happened to the sensor and the wiring, but idk if that would cause the problem. Any input would be fantastic. Thank you all for your time.

Its like anything else at first.......is it getting spark? Is it getting fuel? Is it in time? Theres the possibility of the exhaust knocking loose fuel lines, wires. Is the inertia switch tripped? Check your basics first.
