Georgia halfback Todd Gurley and Florida defensive end Dante Fowler skirmished after a Gurley run during the third quarter of Georgia’s game with Florida Saturday. After Gurley was tackled, Fowler apparently put a finger into the Bulldog’s facemask.

Georgia players stepped in to defend Gurley, Florida linebacker Ronald Powell and defensive lineman Leon Orr got into the fray, and we were playing the feud:
Gurley reportedly threw a punch at Orr from the bottom of the pile:

Eventually, the referees assessed each team an unsportsmanlike conduct. There was no penalty against Gurley for the punch, and he remains in the game.
The teams went at it again just a few plays later. Bulldogs defender Josh Harvey-Clemons committed an obvious horse collar tackle on Gators wide receiver Solomon Patton near the Florida sideline:
Florida’s sideline did not appreciate the gesture, for obvious reasons.
The flags came out again, this time for a litany of penalties:
After the scrum, the flags: Harvey-Clemons (UGA) horse collar; Jenkins & Herrera (UGA) unsprtsmnlke, Harrison & T.Brown (UF), unsprtsmnlke.
