I have been watching football for a long time and have never seen anything like this

 

To me, that looks more like equipment failure than it being shear force from the ripping of the facemask. 

Those helmets have some kind of "quick release" system for facemasks not entirely sure how it works but it may play a role in that

I haven't seen someone run as hard as him in a long time. He was just punishing tacklers

I would hope so. Complete failure of three nuts is not something that just happens normally.

I've never seen something like that before either.

 

OTOH, that was the easiest face-masking call to make in the history of college football.

Sometimes it can only take one nut.. My uncle has kids to prove it..

Ole Miss RB Walton had the same thing happen in a game earlier this year.

 

I think like some others its some kind of design//quick release issue.

These types of things didnt happen back in the 60's.  Am I right TMD???

I agree completely.
