Jim Tressel, Terrelle Pryor Chest Bump Awkward And Amazing

Say you're Jim Tressel, Ohio State head coach. Constricted by the power the sweater vest yields, everyone once in a while you just need to let loose. Tressel did just that in the Sugar Bowl, overcome with emotion after the Buckeyes scored yet another touchdown. Sometimes a man just has to give another man a flying chest bump. And the lucky recipient of the sweater vest chest bump? None other than Terrelle Pryor.

Watch the moment in all its glory, courtesy of BubbaProg.

This is the most awkward chest bump I’ve seen in a long time. Tressel, sleeves rolled-up and all, doesn’t have the hops to hang with Pryor and ends up just holding on for dear life. Instead of a chest bump, it’s more of a leaping man-embrace gone wrong. Don’t fight the power of the bump, Jim, just let it flow.

Pryor gets an A for his form and execution. Tressel, on the other hand, gets a D, simply because he did manage to get off the ground, but not that much more. Of all the fun moments in the Sugar Bowl, this one stands out as the best of them all.
