Football fans have had a thrilling, bizarre, and frustrating time of it this weekend \u2014 between the eked-out victories, the post-game fistfights, the coach tantrums, and one majorly curtailed halftime show. In case you missed any of the drama, here\u2019s what went down on gridirons across the country.<\/p>\n
After Michigan beat Ohio State 13\u201310 and Wolverine players planted their flag on the Ohio Stadium turf on Saturday, a fight broke out between the rival teams, during which law enforcement officers deployed pepper spray in efforts to stop the brawling<\/a>.<\/p>\n Later on Saturday, a North Carolina State player tried to plant a flag on the field at rival North Carolina\u2019s Kenan Field after the Wolfpack beat the Tar Heels 35\u201330. A fight broke out there, too<\/a>, and that was the final game for North Carolina\u2019s recently-fired coach, Mack Brown.<\/p>\n In another flag-planting incident, Florida State head coach angrily threw away a Gators flag<\/a> after University of Florida players planted it there after beating the Seminoles 31\u201311 on Saturday. And Maryland coach Mike Locksley appeared to have a heated conversation<\/a> with Penn State coach James Franklin after Penn State beat Maryland 44\u20137 on Saturday, with a last-second touchdown only extending the lead.<\/p>\n Georgia beat Georgia Tech 44\u201342 on Saturday \u2014 but only after eight overtimes<\/a>. According to college football\u2019s current rules, after the second overtime, tied teams take turns with 2-point conversion attempts to determine the winner. \u201cThis is wildly exciting, but not a good way to decide a football game,\u201d JJ Watt<\/a> said of Saturday\u2019s showdown on X<\/a>.<\/p>\nNC State and North Carolina players did the same hours later<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n
