EL PASO, Texas — In retrospect, you knew Middle Tennessee football was going to win on Saturday in the Sun Bowl when they punted the ball on fourth and six from the UTEP 44 with 9:13 left to play.

Punting is rarely, if ever, a flashy call for a team to make at any point in the game. Even at MTSU, where Grant Chadwick has quickly asserted himself as one of the best young punters in the entire country during his freshman campaign that's seen him place 15 punts inside the opponent's 20-yard line.
