So I am watching the tail end of the Oregon vs. Boise State ball game and its pretty much over, I am just watching the seconds tick off the clock, as Boise State is gonna take this one 19-8. So the game ends, players start filing on the field to shake hands and show respect for a hard fought game. Well thats were it the respect flies out the window. From what was shown on ESPN, Boise State Defensive End, Byron Hout is jumping around, helmet off, celebrating and he slaps the Oregon tailback, Legarrette Blount on the shoulder. Well this apparently didn't sit well with Mr. Blount because he put ole Byron on his ass. I mean it was straight on the chin and poor Byron never saw it coming. Was it cheap? Hell yeah it was cheap. Did Byron deserve it? He probably did. Who knows what he might have said to Thug living Blount. Was Blount justified in laying this dude out? Probably not. I mean he hit Byron so hard his grandmother felt it. Then he went after the fans. Classy Blount, very Classy.
So with that being said, let me emphasize this point. You don't mess with the Mississippi Boys. Sure, Blount is originally from Florida, but he played Juco at East Mississippi Community College. Apparently this guy is pretty big thug and has some attitude problems. I am guessing he is no longer a 'Duck' after this incident.
***On a sidenote, props to WR Coach Scott Frost for restraining this idiot. And for those of you who don't know who Scott Frost is, he is a former QB for the Nebraska Cornhuskers from 1995 -1997 where he was the starting QB for there 1997 National Championship team. So there is your trivia question and answer.
