Watch: Texas A&M coach Jimbo Fisher sprint to avoid Gatorade bath

It is a tradition — to the point where it has become monotonous — for winning coaches to get the Gatorade bath.

In the bowl games, with the final minutes dragging and dragging, the broadcasts have spent what seemed like an eternity waiting for the players to douse their coach.

Finally, at the end of the Orange Bowl on Saturday, a coach showed guile in avoiding the energy-drink shower.

Check out Texas A&M coach Jimbo Fisher as he breaks into a dead spring to get away from the Aggies and their attempt to pour the bucket of liquid over him after the 41-27 victory over North Carolina.

Those are pretty good legs on a 55-year-old head coach.

There may have been a reason for his decision.
