At a practice on August 24, 2015, Georgia Southern University’s kicker, Younghoe Koo, has made more than just Eagle Nation jaws drop.

He nailed a field goal after performing a series of tricks. First, he kicks the ball, which started off laying flat on the ground, and it lands in the upright kicking position, still spinning a little in the grass.

Next, he boots the ball through the uprights. Koo used the momentum from the kick to do a backflip and lands just in time to see the ball fly through the the goalposts.
