South Carolina is trying its best to pull off a shocking upset over No. 5 Tennessee Saturday night. Tensions are certainly high in Williams-Brice Stadium.
During the third quarter of Saturday night’s game with South Carolina up 11 points, officials flagged the Gamecocks defense for a facemask penalty.
Well, that didn’t sit well with Carolina fans, as the student section threw trash — mostly bottles — on the field causing a brief stoppage in the game. Stadium workers had to run onto the field and clean up the trash before play resumed.
Thankfully, there were no mustard bottles or golf balls.
