On Saturday night, the LSU Tigers' student section watched their team's College Football Playoff hopes crumble after a 4-yard pass play. A video revealed trash falling onto the field, prompting Texas freshman receiver Chris Stewart to walk toward the same stands and taunt the crowd. This marks the second time the Tiger Stadium crowd targeted Texas with thrown items.
Last October, Texas fans threw bottles and cans at the field following a pass interference call against Jahdae Barron, leading to a $250,000 fine and an apology to Georgia and the league. LSU had also thrown debris at Alabama during a previous loss. While LSU's disciplinary actions are their responsibility, the incident highlights a recurring problem for the stadium.
Texas freshman Stewart, a first-year player, responded to the chaos, adding his own element to the tense postgame scene.
