An Arkansas fan in a hog costume ruined ESPN’s shot of Kansas’ first OT touchdown

The AutoZone Liberty Bowl turned out to be an absolute barnburner between Arkansas and Kansas on Wednesday evening. The Jayhawks trailed by 25  points midway through the third quarter after falling behind 38-13 with 8:43 to play.

Then Kansas turned it on, scoring 25 straight — including two touchdowns in the final 1:05 of the game — to knot things at 38 and send things to overtime. In the first extra period, the Jayhawks got off to a quick start as Jalon Daniels kept the play alive and found a wide-open Jared Casey in the end zone.

Or at least that is what we think happened. Viewers didn’t see it in real time thanks to an Arkansas fan in what looks like a plush hog costume standing in front of the ESPN camera.

College football is the best.
