Miss Arizona can take a hit.

During Friday’s Arizona-Arizona State game, Wildcats quarterback Brandon Dawkins rushed to the right sideline and got pushed out of bounds, right into Miss Arizona winner Chelsea Myers. The two tumbled down, and Dawkins landed directly on top of the 21-year-old model/physical therapy technician (as she explains in the third video below). Dawkins didn’t seem to be in much of a hurry to get up:

You can see Myers bounced back up like it was no big deal and was laughing about it soon after:

Being a gentleman, Dawkins gave a public apology as ESPN interviewed Myers on the sideline a few minutes later:

According to her Miss Universe bio, Myers “truly believes that everything happens for a reason”. Could fate have brought her and Dawkins together?
