Texas Longhorns head coach Tom Herman might be a good football coach, but over the past few weeks, he's continued to reveal himself as quite a sore loser.
Herman's Texas squad lost a close game to West Virginia on Saturday after Mountaineers quarterback Will Grier threw a last-minute touchdown and then ran the ball in on a two-point conversion with 16 seconds left on the clock to win 42-41 in Austin.
It was a fantastic, gutsy call from West Virginia's head coach Dana Holgorson and it paid off, but here's how Herman responded postgame.

” Actually, UT coaches were complaining that the runner was “taunting” before crossing the goal line. “
or
He could have been very excited about just winning the game.
Hmmmm, what to do ? Overturn? Yeah, that’s about right; NOT
LOL! True.
Some people complain it's too repetitive, but you gotta love a college song that calls for a barrel of rum!
But Pullman versus Palo Alto?!
taunting would be holding it out toward a pursuing player
****************
Grier was flagged for Unsportsmanlike Conduct, but that was for something he did after entering the end zone. I’m not certain what it was he did; I thought he might have thrown the ball down—like a spike—or threw it into the stands.
An act of unsportsmanlike conduct that happens after the score can not negate the play. UC after the play can only be assessed on the next play, which it was on the ensuing kickoff to Texas. They did not flag Grier for taunting or reaching the ball forward before he scored; they flagged him for whatever he did in celebration AFTER he crossed the goal line.
That will work XD
Please.
The Raiders would blow through the Bama D on every drive. Bama's offense wouldn't get past their 30 yard line.
After the score reaches 100-0 the refs would probably get bored and call the game.
And I hate the Raiders.
I am aware of that and it reinforces my point. He did and upside down hook em in the back of the end zone. A WV player was flagged for that earlier.
Any team that beats Texas is my team.
Yup,Yup,Yes,Yes,Yes
best of them all is always Georgia tech.
You must be a very smart person .. :)
I like Texas too but as near as I can tell it is just “I’ve Been Working On The Railroad” with different words.
Ooops, my error
Have already asked mods to remove.
Either way, they called the penalty. But they didnt take away the points ... only moved the ball back on the kickoff. Thats the complaint.
bad site...... the prefer money to their product
LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
