The one battle we noticed out of Jap Michigan towards South Alabama on Saturday evening throughout the 68Ventures bowl recreation passed off after the 59-10 loss.
South Alabama cruised to its first ever bowl win of their residence stadium with out its beginning quarterback, which led to a tense second following the ultimate whistle. The sport was uncontrolled from an offensive standpoint, with USA main 52-3 within the third quarter.
However it was the postgame kerfuffle that had people within the stadium speaking, and filming. Whereas South Alabama gamers had been celebrating the win with followers and the marching band, one Jap Michigan participant determined he wished to to increase their time in Cell, Alabama.
As you’ll be able to see within the video, the Jaguars had been celebrating the win, when an Jap Michigan participant got here out of nowhere and sucker-punched a South Alabama participant. This led to each groups getting right into a battle in entrance of the followers.
That is when all hell virtually broke free with a number of members of every staff.
Based on one report, each groups had been despatched to the locker room following the incident, then a South Alabama participant got here again out onto the sphere and determined to shoot the hen in direction of the Jap Michigan sideline. It’s honest to say that each groups had been on the lookout for extracurricular exercise following the incident.
On the finish of the day, South Alabama captured its first bowl win in program historical past, whereas Jap Michigan did convey its conventional pregame entrance of tearing down a cement wall. I’ll say that this is likely one of the quirkiest, however cooler entrances in school soccer.
I believe it’s honest to say that gamers from each groups weren’t wishing one another ‘Merry Christmas’ post-game.
