Am I remembering incorrectly or did ut not have some bad luck in the ruling on that poor punt snap that was kicked out of the end zone? Should ut not have had that ball at 5 or 10? I could be wrong...
You are correct. The SEC later admitted that an officiating error had been made on that play. We should have had possession where the punter made contact with the ball. To view the play, fast-forward to roughly the 2:19:00 mark (3:04 left on game clock) at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AREe6S8W4lI. Officials appropriately called an illegal kicking penalty and awarded Tennessee a safety, but the ball should have been placed at Arkansas' 9-yard line, where the punter made contact with the ball.
