Florida State wide receiver Kermit Whitfield says that some Miami fans tried to spit on Seminoles players during the Miami-FSU game on Saturday at Hard Rock Cafe Stadium.
“They were spitting as we were going to the locker room,” Whitfield said. “They didn’t spit on me, but they were spitting.”
Whitfield said that players sitting above the tunnels would spit and try to time it so that the spit would hit the players.
Here’s a video of Whitfield talking about it via Tomahawk Nation:

Though this example seems extreme, Miami fans did get a little rowdy during the game. They also threw debris onto the field in protest of an ejection.
