Only the referees and Brewer aware that he hadn’t signaled for a fair catch

I saw that.
I wonder if it was planned?
MEAN GREEN
Epic!!!
It might have been... all his blockers were on the field, rather than switching from the defensive to offensive lineup. Meanwhile, the other team thought there was the usual clock-stopped change of possession going on.
One of the hard rules of football - you play till the whistle blows.

I’m adopting them as my team this year. They could go unbeaten. Mason Fine is one of the best stories of the year in college football.
(My son is looking to attend there next year)
LOL, at least I know there’s one SEC team worse than Florida this year.
LOL .. outstanding ! !
PUNT PING!!!
UNT is in Denton,TX where I used to work at the Water Treatment Plant. So for purposes of the moment I’ll claim as My Team.
Because They were playing The Arkansas Razorbacks AT The Razorbacks Home Field.
Now I must call My Brother, just for effect of course...
Forgot 1 important item.
Brother is a Diehard Razorback Fan.
Oddly enough He didn’t answer the phone...
Ha ha ha.
Un-sportsmanlike conduct. 15 yard penalty from the spot of the catch.
Or, NOT!
congrats on your son’s accomplishments...great play
damn the caller id...
LOL, more than likely.
I’m sure He still remembers back when I was in Austin and the UT Longhorns beat the Razorbacks big-time in a Bowl Game.
I sent every clipping I could find in the papers to Him- inside a Sympathy Card.
HE WAS PISSED !!! He said if I did it again He was gonna kill Me. He was mad till the Razorbacks got out of the SEC.
Besides the excellent execution, that Brewer guy is FAST!
I’ve lived in Denton for about 7.5 years now after fleeing CA; I’m quite happy here.
I suggest that the behavior of the punt returner constituted unsportsmanlike conduct. He abused a rule meant to protect players from injury to gain a competitive advantage. There should be a rule that a player whose action feign a fair catch, but who did not signal a fair catch be called for unsportsmanlike conduct (which, regardless of the rules, this was) to discourage this sort of thing.
Yes, Arkansas defenders should have waited for a whistle. There should be a rule that a player is down when he fails to attempt to advance the ball, such as the case here.
