A Tennessee player's embarrassing flop got a Florida player thrown out of the game

 

Extremely lame, but clearly effective.

Officials ejected Florida receiver Brandon Powell from the Gators' game against Tennessee on Saturday, with the referee announcing that Powell had punched someone. It turns out that Powell (wearing No. 4 in white) did no such thing.

Tennessee's Rashaan Gaulden (No. 7) put on literally an Oscars-worthy show here. Powell put his hand to Gaulden's face, but either Gaulden was bowled over by a very specific, targeted gust of wind, or he took everyone for a ride here. Give him some credit, I guess, for spinning himself around so thoroughly. That's some next-level martial arts stuff right there.

Florida blew a 21-3 lead and his now being run out of Neyland Stadium. This "punch" is the least of the Gators' problems, all things considered, but it's still a pretty terrible stroke of college football officiating. Jim McElwain and his program have a right to be angry about it, and they definitely will be.

(Also: blimp cameras are great.)
