Arkansas punter Devin Bale pulled off the play of the day in the SEC on Saturday afternoon vs. Texas A&M.
Arkansas was backed up to a 4th and 15 and Sam Pittman wisely decided to send the punt unit out. But after seeing how Texas A&M defended the play, Bale decided to take off up the middle in pursuit of a first down.
Bale ended picking up first-down yardage — and a lot more. He showed off some serious wheels en route to a 25-yard gain. Here’s a replay:
