College sports tends to bring out a certain level of hooliganism not usually seen on other American sports. One idiot in the stands put his hooligan tendencies on display towards the end of today’s game between N.C. State and Florida State.

Northern Illinois has been the ugly stepsister of the BCS since bowl matchups were announced about a month ago.

Typically, when a fan runs onto the playing field at a sporting event, it’s usually as a streaker, sometimes with advertising on their body, often intoxicated, and always during a break in the action.

Seminoles running back Chris Thompson has just nine carries so far in today’s game against Wake Forest, but that hasn’t stopped him from racking up 197 yards and two touchdowns, which includes touchdown runs of 74 and 80 yards. By the way, Florida State is winning 38-0 at the half.

If you happened to wonder what that moment sounded like, while sitting among a group of high-pitched cheerleaders, well, wonder no more.
