Montario Hardesty: I Think I Played Well
August 31, 2012While We’re Waiting… “You’re Going the Wrong Way!”
August 31, 2012Welcome back football! It’s a good thing Kent State was winning, because otherwise this might not have been funny. Andre Parker ran nearly 60 yards the wrong way after a punt grazed the return man, making it live. Parker was in good position to make the play on the ball, but then got confused because he was facing the same direction that the returning team would to take a punt back. As the announcers point out, the other team shouldn’t have tackled him and let him run it all the way back.

This was pretty entertaining not only for the fact the guy ran the wrong way but for the opponents to actually chase him down and knock him out of base. This demonstrates how many players have no idea how the game works especially in college.
It would have been epic had he went the whole way then dropped the ball in the endzone to celebrate
and Kent State still got the ball on the exact spot that he picked it up (cannot advance the ball there).
