Worst miss ever?

Hard to imagine a worse miss than that one. The guy tried to bump it in with the outside of his left foot, which seemed a bit odd, but who am I to second-guess what he does (even though the result leaves him open to a LOT of second guessing). Also, it seems this guy has HUGE shoes. At the end of the clip, watching him running looks like he's wearing swimming flippers.

Watch the Uzbekistan goalkeeper after his gaffe. He doesn't even try to get back up and into the play.

This video does a good job of making Cal look like coaches told a defensive lineman to fake an injury against Oregon to get a pass defense in.

It would appear the worst miss ever was Jeff Reeds 26 yarder. He is out

Nate Newton's son, Texas sophomore running back Tre' Newton, has quit citing concerns for his health after suffering multiple concussions during his high school and college careers. Texas will honor his scholarship.

Best part of Tre' Newton's decision was an unnamed teammate saying he'd worry about concussions ten years from now, but for now, he's "making memories". Or destroying them.
