VIDEO: Campbell's opening statement following 28-14 win over Baylor

Just rewatching that portion of the game. Thought this was an important part of the fight nobody has mentioned, where there are 5 Baylor players fighting, or at the very least, shoving Hakeem. Probably looks worse than it is, but if I were an ISU player and saw that, I'm running in there and pulling guys out, just like David tried to do.

Anybody got a clip of 66 running back on the field? Just loved that.
And the officiating crew should be suspended as well. Had they done their jobs this wouldn't have gotten out of hand.
come on man. What did you want them to do? Start arresting people? I mean they could have flagged 31 for taunting the play before the fight.That's about all that could have been done different.
They lost control of the game when they didn't hammer baylor worse after their defense came to the ISU sideline. Or #31 when he was wondering around in the Iowa State "huddle" after that play. They didn't do enough to settle things down.
And when they ejected Brewer, they let things hang for way too long. They should have wound the clock and started backing them up along with penalizing them for illegal participation until he left.
Randy just hit a whole new level of dumb...
agree they should have dealt with 31. Brewer ejection was pretty weak imo.
I was happy (and so were the commentators) to see law enforcement step in immediately and help put an end to all of it.
The $ must be because of all the fines we have had to pay because of our critiquing bad officiating and unprofessional fans.

i agree, I think that was a big reason #51 got under control when he saw a law enforcement officer telling him to get back to his bench, because obviously the ref didn’t deter him
Things would have gotten really interesting if #51 did a reactionary punch, not knowing it was a law enforcement officer holding him back at the end, and hitting the officer. Would he have been arrested right there on the field? Has that ever happened?
Is that where they tried to gouge Butler's eyes? A clear Ref fail in another situation they should have attempted to control.
It was very last chance u like that's for sure. Also at some point in the telecast they were talking to rhule about how they tried to hit DM alot and hard and wear him down. To me it almost seemed like intentionally hurting the star players is how they want to win. After the fight it seemed like our Defense was afraid to hit anyone especially Brewer when he was running not knowing when he was going to slide of if he was going to
I like this mindset. It's like a super-sub in soccer. Bring on a speedy, starting-caliber winger with fresh legs to run past a tired defense.
The point he should be making is that LEOs had to clean up the mess made by Baylor. Yet, according to the Big 12, we have a flawed policy regarding the safety of opposing teams.
They could have thrown a flag, pulled the coaches together and given them a stern warning to give their teams about anything else getting an unsportsmanlike or ejection (if that's within their power).
I'd imagine there were things going on before Gatorade-gate that warranted a warning of some sort and refs should be able to pick up on that kind of stuff since they're right there on the field and it's part of their ****ing job.
I can watch ESPN's sky view on Sling and pick up on conflict and tension between players so there's no reason the refs can't.
