That was extremely disappointing to see from an upper classman. It was a weird play and once the LB got his arm around the ball, it probably would have been tough for Mitchell to win that battle, but it was galling that he didn't even try. He had a touchdown and just let the guy take the ball from him. He was just like, "welp shit. He's got his hands in there, I guess I shouldn't fight over it." Maybe teh LB was just so much stronger than him that the ball was gone before MItchell even realized he needed to fight for it, but it looked like he just didn't give a shit.
