Pac 10 will probable offer the Utah player psychological counseling. If an Alabama player pulled a stunt like that Nick Saban would have beat the cornbread out of him.
I've feared for a lot of years that one of our guys (I'm thinking of you Rainey!) would do this and the ball would cross the goal line and go out of bounds giving the opponent the ball at the 20. I've never even considered the other team might return it for 6 the other way.
I bet he hates himself and he never risks that happening again!
Believe it or not, a Gator player did the same thing back in the 90s before instant replay. I believe it was Jacquez Green. The ref ruled it a TD but TV replays clearly showed he didn't have possession when he crossed the goal line.
