“What a thug, lock him up!”, stated one other fan.

These followers cannot consider what they’ve simply seen.

“Who does any such shit these days? That’s so loopy 🤣 I’m busting up due to how absurd that is.”, stated one other fan.

What occurred between Tennessee and UAB?

This incident occurred within the first half of the sport between the Volunteers and Blazers. From the UAB perspective, it is a recreation that they’re realistically not going to win, however they might make the headline ls with a powerful and respectable efficiency in opposition to the SEC crew. What Bryant did to Gilbert will seemingly put the Blazers into the headlines, however for the incorrect causes.

Fortunately, Gilbert was positive after being stomped on, and he has continued to kick additional factors all through the Volunteers’ dominant efficiency in opposition to UAB.

As for Bryant, many followers on social media have been calling for his ejection from the sport, and his actions have been harmful and in opposition to the spirit of the game.

Bryant was not ejected from this recreation however given an unsportsmanlike conduct penalty.

To makes issues worse for the Blazers (and to the followers on-line calling for his ejection), whereas Bryant stayed within the recreation, one other member of the crew was ejected within the recreation for concentrating on Volunteers cornerback Donald Lee on a kickoff.

Coming into the fourth quarter, Tennessee has a 56-17 lead over UAB, a lead that’s prone to develop because of the efforts of the Volunteers offense led by Joey Aguilar.
