"History made," tweeted the Southeastern Conference , showing the moment Fuller stepped on to the pitch to kick off at the start of the second half.

There was some social media criticism at the length of the kick but coach Derek Mason said it was an executed plan - a squib kick intended to prevent a return. Given the score, it was her only opportunity. The Power 5 refers to five conferences, including the SEC, considered the elite of collegiate football. The SEC has 14 university teams.Several women have appeared at lower levels of collegiate football. Tonya Butler was the first to kick a field goal, for West Alabama in 2003.

College Football made history today as Sarah Fuller of Vanderbilt kicked the football as a lady kicker. Looking at it, it looked very strange because you could see no usual huge bump in the front - rather, a soothing, soft depression, with huge strength!

Extra, extra, woman did something somewhere for the first time. Headline news for BBC.
