Don't Mess With My Gamecock! Tennessee Player Has Stuffed Animal Stolen From Him After Beating South Carolina

How dare you mess with my Gamecock. This was the message Tennessee offensive lineman Javontez Spraggins was asking South Carolina players on Saturday night.

The Vols and Gamecocks squared off in a highly anticipated rematch from last season's game in Columbia, where Spencer Rattler torched the Vols. But it certainly wasn't the same story on Saturday in Knoxville, as Tennessee won 41-20.

But it was a little skirmish following the game that had folks on social media laughing. First off, Javontez Spraggins usually carries around the stuffed animal of an opponent following a win, so hopefully this makes sense.

As Spraggins was carrying around a stuffed Gamecock following the win over South Carolina, some of the opposing players were not laughing, taking the stuffed animal in the process.

As you can tell, the Tennessee offensive lineman was pretty agitated that someone would take his prized possession. While retreating back to the locker room, South Carolina players were talking trash to Spraggins.

Nothing like a college football, stuffed animal stand-off following a tough game. Lesson of the night is don't mess with another man's Gamecock.
