Steve Sarkisian describes Colin Simmons' profane celebration in 3 words
Simmons had a peculiar celebration after sacking Faizon Brandon
Texas defensive end Colin Simmons sparked controversy with his profane celebration after a sack of Tennessee quarterback Faizon Brandon. Coach Steve Sarkisian was not amused, summarizing the incident in just three words: "That's a bad football play." He lamented that his team had warned against emotional reactions to the crowd, and Simmons' outburst violated that principle.
Simmons compensated for his emotional lapse with a phenomenal five-sack performance, tying Texas' single-game record. The unsportsmanlike conduct penalty, given for simulating restroom activity, left commentators Kirk Herbstreit and Chris Fowler disapproving.
