Eastern Michigan quarterback Mike Glass III got a little crazy at the end of Thursday night’s Quick Lane Bowl.
Glass’ Eagles were down 34-30 in the final minute and trying to rally back. The quarterback rolled to his left for a throw on third-and-10 and threw incomplete. When he got up after being knocked down, Glass was upset and went after a few Pitt players. He threw one punch and then tried to smack another player and ended up catching the referee on the swing.

Glass was called for two unsportsmanlike conduct infractions and ejected.
Glass threw for 311 yards, two touchdowns and an interception, and rushed for 83 yards and a touchdown prior to departing. Between this and a West Virginia game last year, we’ve learned it’s dangerous being a football referee.
