Rivalry game or no, a late hit from a player standing on the sideline is pretty low -- and that is exactly what happened during the Florida game against Florida State on Saturday.
Gators lineman Gerald Willis was ejected after he took a cheap shot on Seminoles quarterback Jameis Winston when Winston ran out of bounds.
The move also cost the Gators a 15-yard penalty for unsportsmanlike conduct.
TV commentators shared their disgust for the player's action immediately after it happened.
