VIDEO: Tennessee Field Goal Attempt Goes Awry
By Kyle Kensing
There really isn’t much that can be written to accurately describe Tennessee kicker Michael Palardy’s field goal attempt against South Alabama. Just…watch.
OK, so maybe something can be written. The physics behind this Tennessee field goal attempt are confounding. Did Palardy’s own Volunteer teammates block his kick? There were a few attempts to more eloquently convey what occurred via Twitter.
What a weird sequence. False start wipes off fake field-goal attempt. Then Palardy's FG try is no good, returned into #Vols territory.

Only the Tennessee Volunteers could block their own field goal.
