During yesterday's SEC college football matchup between Tennessee and Arkansas, Razorbacks receiver Joe Adams was credited with a 60-yard punt return for a touchdown in the first quarter. However, there is no way to convey the amazing skills that Joe Adams displayed on his way to the end zone by just looking at the boxscore. The play has to be seen to be believed.
Adams catches the ball at the Arkansas 40 yard line and runs straight towards the sideline, then runs backwards towards the 30 to avoid Tennessee tacklers while looking for a hole. Adams managed to avoid 6 Tennessee defenders and perform a tightrope act along the sideline, where he finally found a clear running lane to the end zone. Arkansas won the game 49-7.
