Tipped or not?

[newyorkvol]

Again, everyone knows that we got the result we wanted, but is there video proof that the FG kick was tipped or not?

It looks like it was tipped and the tip changed the ball path. Looks like the path was going left. Cole Cubelic posted the video on Twitter.

 

[NighthawkVol]

I didn't think it was tipped. This video convinced me otherwise.

Flight makes it seem like a tip occurred, but I’ve never see any proof of that.

 

[EaglesVols91]

It sure looked like it was tipped but nobody was talking about it. Incredible ending to an incredible win. Means so much more considering we pulled off the win

 

[Nerwen Aldarion]

It looks like it was tipped by a millimeter. Not enough to stop it but just enough to make it ugly

 

[ftsandersvol]

I think the ball was more grazed than tipped. Had #47 not been wearing gloves, he would have probably missed it entirely.

His left or our left? Hooked or pushed? I am not seeing it but also not saying you are wrong.

Dude shouldn’t have trimmed his fingernails before the game. Sorry not sorry

Yep. This is as convincing as any look can be. So close but not quite close enough. Just our day.

The breaks went our way. Finally.

Knew it when they showed the sunset was Tennessee orange

The kicker was moving pre-snap as well. We got away with a false start.
Oh, well... we deserve a bit of luck on our side.

Isn't a d lineman jumping over the offense line also a penalty or is that only in the NFL?

It looks like he hooked the kick left and the tip alters trajectory back to the right slightly.

 

[TennesseeTarheel]

Wouldn't have made it if it wasn't tipped!


Blue Font!

We will never know

I thought exactly the same. It looks like it started as a hook left and was tipped back toward the middle of the uprights.

 

[DaddyChad]

It was tipped

Oh it absolutely was tipped. I think McGrath was breathing a sigh of relief after the kick so much he couldn’t celebrate even.

 

[orchidvol]

I think it was definitely tipped which is why it looked like a "knuckleball". I saw a side angle of the ball going through the uprights this morning. It look like the ball only cleared the bottom crossbar by about a yard. I didn't realize it was that close. Whew!

 

[happy-go_vol]

I'm surprised how he got through pretty easily.

 

[DeepSpringsVol]

Definitely tipped by the smallest of margins. Ironic 47 is the same guy that looked like what the heck was that when our guy puked and nodded? Haha

I think he started to lean forward very slightly pre snap but he did not start a stride until ball was snapped

I wondered the same thing.
