This is even funnier than the Michigan - Ohio one because Florida State is 2-10... Like, have more shame for your record than your logo on the field. Seeing people talk about "winning with class" is hilarious, how about learning to accept that you deserve to be clowned for sucking.
I'm primarily a basketball fan, but this is literally how rivalries work. If the Knicks come into Barclays and whoop the Nets' ass, they get to clown us. We failed to defend our home court and that's our L to take. But it's fair play the other way too, if we win in MSG, we clown them. Simple.
They can't do that, so they cry and whine and embarrass themselves like this.
These players are too soft for this. Hopefully they don't go to the NFL, they will break in preseason.
This is the direct result of poor leadership top to bottom in each instance - win and lose the game with class, no school has the right to do something so blatantly antagonistic as to stick a flag in the middle of a school logo. AND enough of the “rush the field” nonsense as well.
Sadly possibly true in some cases. However I we can always invite folks to higher ground. Barry Sanders did the same thing every TD. Flip the ball to the ref and thank the blockers. Definitely true on the age observation. This old coach will always value sportsmanship & winning.
I love how all these kids sat there and watched what happened this afternoon at the the horseshoe and said to themselves “Oh hell yeah I’m doing that”.
Flags are dumb. Leave them with the cheerleaders/band and leave the field in an orderly manner to head to the visitors' locker room. It's not tough to pretend to have class even if you don't.
2024 UF is not a great team. At least they didn't throw a cleat, get ejected for spitting or take a cheap shot to knock out a player like their previous teams.
There have been at least 4 fights today on rivalry day over flag planting. I have never seen so much unsportsmanlike conduct on a single day. It’s appalling that people feel entitled to publicly act like Neanderthals. College football has taken on meanness and incivility. No longer worth watching
And let's make this the unofficial post game brawl starter.
"They won and look, they're bringing out the brawl flag to plant!"
Do it for the pride and mayhem.
I just can’t imagine why young men in this country think it’s alright to behave this way. What possibly could have happened to make them feel like this is alright? 😐
Why would anyone do that, passion of your team is one thing. Celebrate your scores fine, but do not do that. That kind of disrespect can actually lead to people being killed. You do that in Europe at the wrong Football game (Soccer) and people will get hospitalised or dead 100% guaranteed.
THEY need to STOP…ALL OF THEM…ANY TEAM or MEMBER..that is doing this. They need to understand…that…starting Jan. 20, 2025..AND soon AFTER… America may start to look like Russia, North Korea, etc, AND we NEVER see the FREEDOMS..of ASSEMBLY football, basketball, concerts, etc. in Russia, NK, Hungary
Thanks so much for posting this! My PA was on the phone with the sound off when they played this clip and the Michigan/Ohio fight and wondered what was going on. We can both sleep tonight! 😴

I really did like sports better before being a prick came into fashion.

Only showing effort against their rival after the game ends
(Not really, just playing prophet)
there is exactly zero reason to be a bad winner.

and one is cleary worse than the other, IMO.

Actually, after this season, they all probably just wanted to punch someone.
those are typically held at neutral sites, so there is no implied insult.

Mike Norvell ran that offense as well as #DeSantis ran his presidential campaign!
Sports is the other opiate for the masses.
