Dan Mullen appeared to be furious over a late hit on Florida quarterback Kyle Trask before halftime of Saturday’s game against Missouri at Ben Hill Griffin Stadium in Gainesville, Fla. that sparked a brawl.
Florida attempted a Hail Mary while up 20-7 against Missouri on the final play of the half. Trask was nailed by a cheap shot from Trajan Jeffcoat after releasing the ball.

Mullen was ticked off and started to yell across the field. The Gators coach yelling at Missouri must have fired up Florida’s players, leading to some friction before halftime. Players began throwing punches and kicking as part of the brawl (video here).
Mullen was so hyped up that he fired up the fans in Gainesville before going into the tunnel for halftime.
