Nebraska punter kicks ball off of his own lineman's backside; Iowa returns it for TD

It's been a pretty miserable game this afternoon between Iowa and Nebraska. Iowa is winning 24-14 late in the third quarter despite having four turnovers. Nebraska is playing even worse, and the Huskers afternoon can be summed up by this punt attempt where the punter fumbles the snap and then drills his own protector and its then returned for a TD by Iowa.

This was officially ruled a -31 yard punt and a 12 yard touchdown return by Iowa's Drew Ott. It's just tremendous. Slowing it down, it appears to hit the lineman's back not his butt, but in our hearts it will always be a #ButtPunt.
