Is this a new mechanic for umpires on KO's? "When the runner is heading for you at full speed, quickly move into the bench area and hide..."

Who said Umpires don't bring the speed?

Ha! Reminds me of a cartoon character trying to outrun a falling tree by running the length of the tree.
Maybe a couple steps upfield?

I had to watch this a few times over last night made me laugh. This was by far the best part of that long drawn out game.

I thought that on first glance but it's 2 and 2 (wedges, yes, but legal) and one breaks off near the other 2 but he doesn't end up on the same yardline and it's over pretty quickly. IMHO, would be a VERY technical call, if made. Don't kick the sleepin' dog...

I have yet to see running away with one's back to the play as an approved mechanic. Love to be a fly on the wall in the post-game eval on this one. :)

An unusual technique - especially for an U. One has to wonder how he handles a draw play on a scrimmage down with the tail back running directly at him.
I think he is a bit too far upfield. Perhaps being in a bowl game resulted in an adrenaline rush on the opening kickoff.
