WATCH: Texas Longhorns start dust-up over Horns Down following loss to Cal State Fullerton
Things got heated between the Texas Longhorns and the Cal State Fullerton Titans on Sunday evening following their baseball game. There was a bit of a scuffle between the two teams in the outfield in the bottom of the 11th inning, right after the game finished thanks to a walk-off RBI from the Titans. Apparently, Cal State Fullerton players flashed the “Horns Down” sign to the Longhorns players, and they didn’t appreciate it.
