Benjamin Watson, Peter Burns Fight During Florida Game Goes Viral
Benjamin Watson and Peter Burns were on hand to do analysis for a college football game on Saturday between Florida and Vanderbilt.
During their coverage, Burns made a comment about Watson’s wife that rubbed some folks the wrong way.
Bad move.
The video largely speaks for itself:

This has been a wild few weeks in college football. Between ESPN’s controversial Lee Corso decision today, a female Texas fan ripping her clothes off in annoyance following last week’s defeat and random girls doing strange things in the seats – it has been one crazy thing after another.
In that respect, this apparent fight between Watson and Burns is just par for the course.
The video speaks for itself. https://t.co/SgQJNZBTdg

Will further clarity eventually emerge on what happened between those two during the commercial break?
Time will tell.
