re: Best Hit You've Seen In TS

On a kick or punt return against Ole Miss I think in TS, Nicky Savoie nearly killed some poor bastard

It may have been Arkansas, and it was a LB #44. I remember it well from my seat in the middle of the NEZ.

It was a punt return by Kevin Faulk I think that started in the middle of the field around the North 15 yard line, cut toward the east sideline, and turned upfield. #44 was trying to use an angle to beat Faulk to the sideline but was not quite there.

Meanwhile, Nicky saw that #44 was the only guy close, peeled back from blocking in the middle of the field, and headed straight toward the east sideline in a full sprint.

#44 never saw Nicky at all. It was a full shoulder in the middle of the chest that sent #44 from about 10 feet from the sideline to completely out of bounds.

I wish there was a video of this somewhere.

csb alert: I saw Nicky last weekend. Still a BIG dude.
