Every time I see a Flynn thread, I think about something that happened in the '07 year.

I don't remember who we were playing, but Flynn took off on a scramble and picked up a good chunk of yardage and a first down. He gets up, and someone knocks helmets with him to congratulate him(in my memory, it was Chase Pittman, but after looking him up, he wasn't on the '07 team). When that happened, it broke Flynn's chinstrap.

I remember the talking heads replaying it, because he feels that his chinstrap is broken, realizes he doesn't have time to replace it, then falls down and grabs his knee like he's injured.

I've searched again and again and can't find a video of this, but I know it happened.

Well Chase played D obviously so was it someone on the sideline? If so it could have been Kirstin Pittman?

Isn’t that what also happened to Hester on the TD against FL that put us up late?

The broken chin strap was vs Bama 07. Early three Flynn a bomb on a trick play. Then the whole fall down thing. I believe Verne was going nuts because we didn’t have Perrilloux (though he’d earlier gone nuts because he thought we did, but it was Kelvin Sheppard .... oh that Verne!)

Anyway, apparently we called timeout. I didn’t remember that part. Guess they didn’t wanna put Hatch in to handoff/ burn a down
