No that is incorrect. Hayes punched a player on the opposing team that had just intercepted a pass to seal Ohio State losing the game and he lost his temper.

At any rate, woody Hayes punched what was basically a grown man, not a child.

Big difference.

And again. He tripped up a player running to the end zone.

My mistake:

Woody Hayes did not trip a Michigan player, but he famously punched Clemson player Charlie Bauman during the 1978 Gator Bowl
