FORT WORTH, Texas â A dramatic University of Tulsa season marked by thrilling conclusions and rampant schedule disruptions featured one final twist, an ugly brawl after the Armed Forces Bowl on Thursday.
After the Hurricane stumbled 28-26 to Mississippi State at Amon G. Carter Stadium, players from both teams were throwing punches instead of exchanging postgame handshakes, a wild scene that lasted several minutes while staffers and security tried to separate them.
âI hate that it happened,â TU coach Philip Montgomery told the Tulsa World via a team spokesman. âThereâs no place in our game for that, and I donât want it to be part of our game.â
