SEC admits Tennessee's onside kick vs Texas was 'incorrectly officiated'

The governing body for the Southeastern Conference acknowledged that officials blundered during the fourth quarter of a late-September contest by failing to penalize a drop-kick attempt by the Volunteers. Following the recovery near the end of regulation, the league office clarified that the kicker violated alignment rules by launching the ball behind the designated restraining line without maintaining his lateral position between the hashes.

Although the head coach of the opposing squad previously questioned the legality of the maneuver and sought clarification, the final outcome remained unaltered as a subsequent desperation pass fell incomplete.
