Memphis player hilariously tackles his own teammate vs. Mississippi State

Memphis didn’t have the greatest opening weekend.
The Tigers were blitzed by the Mississippi State Bulldogs Saturday evening. By game’s end, following a 50-minute lightning delay, the Tigers fell 49-23. Nothing seemed to go the Tigers’ way.
I mean, no wonder! The Tigers’ running backs were being tackled by their own offensive linemen.
Nice tackle by the Memphis O-lineman ?? pic.twitter.com/fXetfHdhgh

Not sure what the offensive lineman’s plan was there. The nearest Aggie to block had already cleared out of the area, it seemed the running back was the only person he could have hit. For obvious reasons, the back, Asa Martin, wasn’t too happy.
It’s tough enough to beat an SEC opponent on their home turf as it is.
