Miami gets unsportsmanlike conduct penalty after skirmish with FSU

Miami got an unsportsmanlike conduct penalty after several players ran onto the field following a play that left one of their players injured in the second quarter.

Florida State was kicking off after scoring to make the game 17-7. Hurricanes kick returner Jeff Thomas was injured after being brought down on a facemask by Logan Tyler on his kickoff return, leading several Canes players to come off the bench across the field to look into the matter. Players got into it and there was a skirmish.

There were off-setting penalties on the kickoff. FSU got to re-kick from midfield due to the unsportsmanlike conduct penalty.

Between this and the pregame skirmish, the Miami-Florida State rivalry is alive and well.
