I bet you've never seen an accidental onside kick before

I have never seen anything like this before in all my years of football watching.

On Saturday, Arkansas accidentally executed one of the best onside kicks I've ever seen.

WAIT, WHAT?

Ahh, college football where the kickoffs are real, unlike the NFL. The unintentional onside kick was the result of a squib kick that just happened to bounce off an opposing player and straight back to the kicker who excitedly fielded the kick.

I wonder if this could just work as a strategy from now on?

I am so happy that football is back!

How could you repeat it? Sounds like a really neat coincidence in play.

The new NFL kickoff really sucks.

They should just place the ball on the 20 yard line and start from there............

Yep, just eliminate it and start on the 20 if you going to ruin it.

The rule makers in the NFL keep working diligently to make football ever more boring.

Kickoffs were one of the most exciting and unpredictable moments of the game.

Now they are one of the most predictable.

Next up for the make the game safe people, what, punt returns?

More like clumsiness than coincidence. As much as I like college football, the first games of the season often look like Little Rascals vs Three Stooges.

Ahh, Fall is in the air and now the masses have something vitally important to think about and talk about besides Uncle Herschel and Cracker Barrel. The airwaves will be filled in the nightly news with a parade of dread locked meat with little to say who talk a lot and who are held on pedestals by legions of Americans.
