You knew this one was coming.
Frustrated coming off the field trailing Louisiana 21-14, one Texas A&M player, later identified as Will Gunnell, displayed said frustration by flipping off the Kyle Field crowd as the Aggies headed into the locker room. Because of that lack of class, Gunnell did not come back on the field with the rest of his A&M teammates as the football program caught wind of his actions.
Not long after the game ended, the true freshman wide receiver took to Twitter to apologize for what he had wrought, although he claimed that his “ill-advised gesture [was] in no way directed at the fans.”pic.twitter.com/d7wuznD2Aa

On the field, A&M was able to right the ship in the second half as the Aggies shut the Ragin’ Cajuns out the final two quarters in pulling away to a 45-21 win. While they came away with the victory, the first-half-play and Gunnell’s display no doubt cranked up the temperature underneath Kevin Sumlin‘s coaching seat a couple of degrees.
