South Carolina fans throw trash, towels on field to protest poor officiating
Things are getting ugly in Columbia, where South Carolina is losing 38-20 to Florida.
Fans are not happy with several blown calls by the officiating crew, and coach Will Muschamp is letting his displeasure be known, too.
As you can see below, fans have been throwing towels, water bottles and trash on the field during multiple points in the game:

It’s always disappointing to see things get so out of hand, but South Carolina’s frustrations are understandable.
Still, it’s going to be scary for the refs and Florida players leaving the field. Let’s hope things don’t continue to spiral out of control.
