Jaxson Dart couldn’t believe he missed an easy celebratory dunk on Ole Miss’ sideline after a TD

Ole Miss quarterback Jaxson Dart had a standout performance Saturday in his team’s 38-25 win over No. 10 Penn State on Saturday in the Peach Bowl, but he might want this “play” back.

After Dart ran in a two-yard touchdown in the middle of the fourth quarter to give Ole Miss a 38-17 lead over the Nittany Lions, he was celebrating with his team on the sidelines.

That celebration included some basketball, and as Dart dribbled toward the Penn State-themed basket, he made an attempt at a 360 slam dunk. It looked good at first — though we’re not exactly sure how high the basket was — but the ball bounced back out at the last second.

An uncontested shot like that? You gotta make it. But he did just score a touchdown so maybe he was a tad out of breath.
