Here ya go,

"But coach said to try a feint. Did it work?"

lol he gets killed when he is trying to get back up.

I think he said "this is my impression of the state of Da U football"

"There's just no place for that in professional wrestling, Gordon"...wait

A picture is worth a thousand words. A gif is worth a million.

What in the literally flop is going on here? Was this supposed to be like the fumblerookski or something? Or did he have a seizure?

It was a fake punt play. Most likely, the player was trying to distract and confuse the defense.

Wow I didn't notice that. That's gotta go down as one of the more bizarre trick plays out there.

"Ok guys, here's what we're gonna do. We'll line up like we're going to punt. Only, get this, we'll have one of our coverage men pretend to have a heart attack. But wait, there's more. We won't actually punt. Oh no! Instead, we'll lob an interception. They'll never see it coming!!!" - Al Groh

HAHAHAHA fantastic. Leg 'em up

Still blocks better than Marcus Davis

sad because it's true

I just sit on my couch and b*tch. - HokieChemE2016

take all my legs.

Thank you for that. I LOLed so hard

there is a version somewhere that shows him getting lit up by a blocker when he tries to get up

yeah, in the extended video he dies twice

@historyhokie.bsky.social

Why?

gotta give the player credit. He went for it and did a great job acting it out. Why do it? no idea, and I would like to believe when the coaches told him to do it he was like "WTF?"

I wonder how many times he actually practiced that

"Exit light..."

That might be the funniest vine I've ever seen. Just wow haha.

In Sam Rogers we trust.

This is weird,weird and double weird.

Bold Strategy Cotton!

I can't stop watching.

I just dont get it.....

due to the formation plus the motion man, the fainting player is an ineligible receiver so he can't go across the line and block.. the play is on the other side of the field to an eligible offensive tackle (who was open by 5 yards, the punter threw a horrible pass) .. so in order to not tip off the play was a fake and keep the player in question behind the line of scrimmage, one of the players suggested having him faint like a goat, and the coach mostly trying to improve morale on the team went with it....and that's the basic story behind it

one of the players suggested having him faint like a goat

Fainting goats? Is this anything like cow-tipping?

"Tajh Boyd over the middle . . . and it's caught for an interception! Michael Cole, lying flat on his back, ARE YOU KIDDING???"

"Exit light..."

The scene at the end when he uses the umbrella to get an entire section of them to faint over has me laughing nonStop.

Wet stuff on the red stuff.

See, this is why I love TKP so much. It's just so darned educational!

"Tajh Boyd over the middle . . . and it's caught for an interception! Michael Cole, lying flat on his back, ARE YOU KIDDING???"

Go find the video of the kitten that has this exact same condition. It's sad because the kitten dies really young, but it's alive during the whole video and brings a whole different level of cuteness and hilarity.

His inner Hokie died as they announced the final score to our game!
