FAYETTEVILLE -- University of Arkansas freshman linebacker Bumper Pool had an escort going down the home sideline during his 60-yard fumble return Saturday after De'Vone McClure knocked the ball loose from Eastern Illinois quarterback Johnathan Brantley in the third quarter.
Cornerback Ryan Pulley sprinted quickly to Pool's inside from behind.
"Oh man, I was trying to push him to score," Pulley said. "He thought I was trying to strip the ball from him actually. But I was pushing him to score, trying to get him a touchdown. That was a good [play] by him and Pluck [McClure].
