Texas A&M's Jimbo Fisher explains being on field during punt return

COLLEGE STATION, Texas -- In the fourth quarter of Texas A&M's 27-10 win over Auburn, the Tigers' Eugene Asante picked up a fumble and darted down the A&M sideline.

He had a clear path to the end zone except for one man: Aggies coach Jimbo Fisher.

Fisher was so far out on the field that Asante actually was between him and the sideline.

ESPN analyst Robert Griffin III couldn't believe what he was seeing, replaying the play and circling Fisher on the Telestrator.
