The Rarest Punt On Earth Just Happened

[@IsaacPunts]

For those confused, the 79 Yard punt that bounces off the top of the Pylon is the only time I've ever seen that happen. Incredibly rare.

[@paulready8897]

It should be a touchback because the pylon is considered part of the end zone. I’ve seen running backs reach out and hit the pylon with the ball, which was ruled a touchdown.

[@jyutzler]

@@paulready8897 Correct, but it's such a cool thing to do that it's a shame they don't reward the punter for it.

[@SPOngeBoB8177]

@@jyutzlerI mean, it’s also cool when the kicker doinks the uprights but that’ll never be rewarded 😂

[@jsmith1890]

​@paulready8897 it was called a tuchback, so the Utes got the ball at the 25 yard line instead of the on 1 if it bounced out before hitting the pylon it would of been on the 1

[@jamesstarnes8026]

Can the Dolphin's punter get some love? If he doesn't pin the Jags on the 2-yard line twice, they don't drive 90 + yards, and the RB doesn't get fatigued and fumble for a touchback; effectively flipping the game. Great Videos!

@@IsaacPunts Thank you!

[@Republicanmouse]

Impressive, but I once saw an 80 yard punt by a 12 year old 7th grader in JFL. Now, to be fair, he had a wind gusting to 40mph at his back. I was the coach, and I told him to go out and kick the ball as high and hard as he could and let the wind do the rest. He kicked it nearly straight up, the ball went over 50 yards in the air, then bounced to right way. He kicked from his own 20, and the ball was downed at the 1/2 yard line. Pretty cool memory for the kid. He punted in high school and at a small college, and he never replicated that distance….not even close.

[@morefiction3264]

When your best player is the punter.

[@Levi-tm4gl]

What the actual f**k. Dude's foot hit the ball on the 10 and it landed on the opposite 12. That's SEVENTY EIGHT yards in the air!

[@Youngguns42303]

Its funny they count a fg from where kicked and a punt from LOS

[@chili015]

​@Youngguns42303 - It's because you measure forward progress from where the ball was downed. For a field goal, after the placeholder receives the snap, he sets the ball on the ground to be kicked, so it's measured from there since the ball is touching the ground. For a punt, the ball doesn't touch the ground, so it's measured from where it was snapped (it doesn't count if the snap hits the ground first or the punter drops the ball, picks it back up, and then kicks it).

[@KeithCooper-Albuquerque]

I love how you are giving the love to punters! It is a part of the game that has been overlooked for far too long!

[@norwoodwildlife9849]

One of my pet peeves in football is when the announcers fail to mention how long a punt was

[@jakedavis8377]

Lol. Was watching this game (Utes fan) and I was wondering why tf our returners were up so close. Makes me feel a little better that the punter was amazing and it wasn't all on the returners. Glad we got the W tho

[@32a34a]

There are two missiles I remember and this goes back to when I was a wee little boy. Ray Guy who although a punter drilled a 61 yard field goal in a snowstorm in Utah. Then in 72 he drilled a 93 yard punt against their rivals Mississippi. Dude had a cannon attached to his hip.

[@lucasmembrane4763]

A punt hitting the pylon that has not previously gone out of bounds is a touchback, not as good as going out or bounds or coming to rest anywhere inside the 25 nowadays. I'm not sure if this is still the rule, but back in the 1960's, the rule was that when possession changed when a punt went out of bounds, the ball would be spotted for the receiving team so that the forward end of the ball would be where the punt went out. But if the punt went out so close to the goal line that the back end of the ball would be on or over the goal line, the receiving team would be given a little bonus so that they weren't starting where no gain would result in a safety -- the ball would be spotted with its back end an inch or so from the goal line. I would say that is or was the rarest punt in college football, and I did see it happen. Tragically, the receiving team's first subsequent play from scrimmage was a 100 yard touchdown pass (crossed 99 yard lines and the punting team's goal line).

[@Caleb-w6l]

Baylor's punting is great; the rest of the team, however, needs a good swift kick...

[@HeavyTopspin]

A&M's punter dropped a punt that took a hard right turn inside the 1 on Saturday, right before halftime. Only 48 yards but the placement and spin were legendary.

[@bonusbaby801]

Dude should be hopping mad on the sideline with BOTH the offense & defense. "I'M DOING ALL I CAN TO PIN THEM BACK & YOU CAN'T STOP THEM!!! AND I'M WEARING MY LEG OUT BECAUSE YOU GUYS CAN'T MOVE THE BALL!!!"

[@toogyman]

[@dontwitty1656]

if a player hitting the pylon means you score a touchdown- it also means that punt, being a former punter, it was gorgeous, but still a touchback

[@walrtbstudios5430]

Excellent punts all- but I seem to recall that the great Randall Cunningham launched a monster punt from well inside his own half that ended deep in the opponent’s red zone. Not bad for a punter- but he was the starting QB… Can anyone direct me to this piece of NFL arcana, or did I completely imagine it?

[@mikeresendez5151]

When your offense sucks you get a lot of practice punting...

[@coachanderson2704]

Hey dude the air is so thin up there at Utah's stadium; that is why all those monster punts! THIN AIR up there! LOL

[@rickcimino5483]

did the one that hit the pylon go for a touchback....since the pylon his in bounds and in the endzone?

[@JerryRussell-v8y]

Well….you are at 6500 feet…you know…thin air…and, all that meteorological stuff…

[@kurtmorris454]

I don't care how good a punter you have, you're not going to win many games if he's your highlight. It's not the fact that he's punting so well as much as it's the fact that he's punting so many times.

[@JingleStic]

Im still left with the question. What was the rarest punt?

[@deepcosmiclove]

It would be 98 yards from the 1 to the 1. Steve O'Neal Jets 98 yards in 1969.

[@mabus42]

Even the best punter can't save a team with terrible offense.

[@whatwhat745]

would have been better if the ball squeaked out of bounds before hitting the pylon. Better for Baylor and the punter.

[@CCoburn3]

Yeah -- and his team still lost. Though I suppose they would have lost by a wider margin if he hadn't been there. He may be like Archie Manning. Archie was one of the best quarterbacks in the league at the time, but the Saints were ALWAYS a lousy team. No matter how good Archie was, the rest of the team sucked, so they lost game after game. Maybe this kid will get drafted into the NFL soon and get out of Baylor.
