A few weeks ago, Texas fans set what some thought was a potentially dangerous precedent for college football. After a questionable penalty that negated an interception, Longhorn fans threw trash on the field causing a stoppage in play. During the stoppage, officials convened and overturned the call.
College football fans, media, and even some coaches were shocked that a temper tantrum from the stands could effectively overturn a call and cause a big shift in momentum during a game.
Saturday night, Clemson fans did something similar. However, this tantrum had a much different result for the home team. Louisville scored on a 45-yard touchdown run on the very next play to go up 33-14 on the Tigers, and they never looked back.
