Texas fan mocked for recording himself on field flipping off Florida players after Longhorns’ loss to Gators
Published:
The Texas Longhorns suffered their second consecutive 27-24 loss on Saturday, falling at home to the Florida Gators one week after losing to the Oklahoma Sooners. Some of their fans are handling the news better than others.
After Florida’s victory in Austin, a Texas fan was seen filming himself flipping off Gator players. The fan waltzed across the field and appeared to yell expletives as he approached then backed away from Florida’s sideline.
While the fan — who appeared to have a sideline pass on his belt line — seemed proud of himself, social media didn’t see any reason for him to be so cocky. Twitter users bashed him and the Longhorns’ “arrogant” fanbase in the comment section.
Texas (4-2, 1-2 SEC) joined 1961 Michigan State and 1939 Pittsburgh as the only teams in NCAAF history to lose back-to-back games against unranked teams when starting the losing streak as the No. 1 team in the AP poll, according to ESPN. The Longhorns were out-possessed by more than 16 minutes (38:11-21:49) on Saturday and converted just 20% of their third-down attempts (2/10) against the Gators. Arch Manning and Co. host No. 9 Ole Miss in Week 8.
