10 yard line.

FWIW Oklahoma States Tyreke Hill ran a 9.67 from the 10 to the goal line in the ok return in the commercial before Holloways run.

These are unofficial times as they are based on the stop watch on my phone.

That's actually a really good time in the real world. A 40 in a 40 yard dash is not nearly the same thing as a 40 in a game.

Well he wasn't starting from stand still, but I just wanted to know... Get an idea.

Seems really fast.

Well he is also not traveling a completely straight line from the 50 to the 10. There is a slant in his run which is adding yardage.

Who had the angle on him. It's not like he was caught from behind.

It's weird to me the way people use the phrase "run down" when talking about Holloway. I wouldn't say BMac "runs down" a RB every time he makes a tackle. It seems like "runs down" implies catching somebody from behind, not being in between them and the goal line and making a tackler or even just being closer to the goal line and having an angle on them and making the tackle.

He left the guy who was actually behind him in the dust.

Are you really complaining that a 50 yard run ended at the two and not the endzone? Really?

The best thing about that video is that, once again, Bear is the next guy down the field behind him, looking to make a block (just couldn't get there fast enough in this case). Bear is quickly becoming one of my all-time favorites.

Bear hit that guy pretty damn hard

If he would have had proper falling technique he would have gotten in the end zone ***

his knee hit the sideline before he got the ball over the line.
