Michael Irvin took the belt to Ohio State after CFP win

Just like the No. 10-seed Miami Hurricanes, former NFL star Michael Irvin was unstoppable on Wednesday night.

The Pro Football Hall of Famer was back at it again with his shenanigans amid the College Football Playoff, as he had quite a way to celebrate his alma mater’s 24-14 takedown of the No. 2-seed Ohio State Buckeyes in the Goodyear Cotton Bowl Classic at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas.

Shortly after Miami pulled off the upset against Ryan Day’s Buckeyes, Irvin took off his belt and went to town on a helpless Gatorade jug on the sidelines. 

Here’s a clip of the moment.

The 59-year-old former Dallas Cowboys wide receiver whipped that jug over a dozen times. Of course, it withstood the punishment, but that’s not the point. Irvin has become an attraction all to himself during the College Football Playoff, particularly whenever Miami has a game.

Irvin also grabbed attention with his behavior during the Hurricanes’ previous win against the No. 7-seed Texas A&M Aggies in their CFP first-round matchup at Kyle Field in College Station, Texas.

With Carson Beck and company advancing to the next round, fans can expect more such antics from Irvin, who helped Miami win a national title in the 1988 Orange Bowl.

Miami next faces the winner of Thursday’s meeting between the No. 6-seed Ole Miss Rebels and No.-3 seed Georgia Bulldogs
