‘I’m not changing it’ – Oklahoma kicker Tate Sandell addresses his shorts that went viral during win against Tennessee
Oklahoma kicker Tate Sandell went viral on Saturday during a game against Tennessee for the length of his shorts.
Oklahoma Sooners kicker Tate Sandell was the star of the show on Saturday night in Neyland Stadium.
Sandell connected on all four of his field goal attempts (three of which were over 50 yards) in the Sooners’ 33-27 win over the Tennessee Vols.
The Texas native’s impressive performance came while wearing some football shorts that were a little shorter than what you typically see on Saturdays.
ESPN’s Kirk Herbstreit, who is no stranger to being overly critical of players, seemed to take issue with Sandell’s shorts.
Tate Sandell explains why his shorts were so short against Tennessee
Sandell admitted after the game that he didn’t realize his shorts were that short until he saw a TV replay.
“I did not know they were that short,” said Sandell. “But I’m not gonna say that I’m gonna change it, because it’s working. I didn’t know they were that short [until] I looked on TV, let’s say that.”
Sandell went on to explain that his pants ripped in pregame, and he kept having to pull them up during the game, making them even shorter.
“Well, they ripped pregame, so they kept falling down,” explained Sandell. “So I think I kept pulling them up a little bit higher, just trying to get them to stay…I’m not changing it. We’re gonna make it work.”
I wouldn’t change anything either after hitting three 50-yarders in one game.
