Well, I hope you had this one on your 2020 bingo card.
The LSU Tigers upset the No. 6 Florida Gators on Saturday night, aided by one of the strangest penalties you’ll ever seen.
In the game’s final minutes, Florida cornerback Marco Wilson threw a shoe belonging to an LSU player after a play, and was flagged for unsportsmanlike conduct.
The penalty allowed the drive to continue for the Bayou Bengals, who managed to nail a 57-yard field goal to take a 37-34 lead.
Florida’s ensuing drive got close enough to try a 50-yard field goal of their own, but it sailed just wide, giving LSU the upset victory on the road.
