I watched the rest of the 4th quarter of the East West game. Vollmer didn't play anymore. Sidbury was able to apply pressure to the qb going up against Dan Gay IV from Baylor. He never gave Vollmer any trouble the whole game.
There was one funny play when I was watching Vollmer. On a pass play, the qb couldn't find anyone open and started to scramble. He rolled out to Vollmer's side where Vollmer had engaged his man and was keeping him way out of the play, but out to the right. The qb decides to scramble back the other direction and eventually runs right into Myron Pryor who wraps him up with a nice form tackle. Announcers get all excited and say something like " Pryor waited right where he seemed to know qb would run back to. " Everyone on the East side is slapping Pryor on the back for the great sack. I run the play back to see who missed his block on Pryor. What really happened was he got flat-out pancaked by I think one of the BYU guys. I mean he was flat on his stomach like a big walrus. If the blocker had just laid on top of him, no sack. Instead, they just both just got to their feet, thinking the play was over for them. Both Pryor and the blocker start looking around to see what is happening and the qb runs right into Pryor. From a humiliating pancake to the luckiest sack I've seen in quite awhile.
