Sometimes the tensions that come with a close, hard-fought football game boil over.
One of the great things about college football is the friendly trash-talk and intense rivalries, but fans occasionally let emotions get out of hand.
A fight broke out during the Alabama-FSU matchup Saturday evening, and one of the instigators appears to throw a lady to the ground during the scuffle.
Local Atlanta news Fox 5 Atlanta tweeted a report Monday night that the two men, identified as a father and son, were arrested Saturday.

One person claiming to be an eyewitness to the altercation tweeted that the lady involved was taken to the hospital.
I am in the original video and can confirm it is the same guy who threw the woman down. https://t.co/g6VbvimO3r

College football is certainly an intense and emotional sport, but getting into a fight over a game is never a good idea.
