The West Virginia Mountaineers went into Lubbock on Saturday and took care of business against Texas Tech.
However, things did get chippy between the Red Raiders and the Mountaineers, with some punches being exchanged following a play.
As you can see in the funny video below, set to Rocky music, West Virginia OT Yodny Cajuste and Texas Tech DL Eli Howard were the two involved in the fighting:

Cajuste dodges Howard’s final punch and then throws some moves at Howard, which is hilarious.
Both players remained in the game, somehow, with the Mountaineers holding on for the victory. But once again, it is baffling as to why players try to punch other players who are wearing helmets. Just doesn’t seem smart.
