Seiple the legend of punt formation runs
Louisville AP Larry Seiple, Miami Dolphins punter and receiver, recalls his famed fourth down punt formation runs. He notes a Kentucky game memory where a 70 yard punt-formation dash vs Mississippi became a college legend, though he says he only did it once under Coach Bradshaw. His other notable feat is a 37 yard punt formation run that set up Miami's first TD in the 21-17 1972 AFC playoff win over Pittsburgh.
