There were some post-game fireworks after the 7OT Texas A&M victory over LSU.

According to LSU's side:

After the victory A&M WRs coach, Dameyune Craig, who was the LSU WRs coach under Les Miles, ran over to the LSU sideline and started talking shit about their win.

Steve Kragthorpe, LSU Staffer/Analyst (former Louisville head coach) said he went over to Craig and said " 'Hey, Dameyune get out of here. You won. You don't need to be doing that. Move along." 

Then out of nowhere, he got punched in the chest by a man in red with an A&M sideline pass.  The man was later identified as Jimbo Fisher's nephew, Cole.  Cole's role on the Texas A&M sideline is uncertain, and he is not listed on the athletic department's official staff directory. 

Steve Kragthorpe has Parkinson's disease and has a pacemaker to help send signals to his brain.

"I went up to Dameyune and said, 'Hey, Dameyune get out of here. You won. You don't need to be doing that. Move along.' And that's when I got hit. I mean, I got nailed. He was a young guy. I'm 53. I'm not going to fight him. I have Parkinson's, but even if I didn't, I haven't gotten in a fight since high school. That would be a poor reflection on Coach O and Joe (athletic director Joe Alleva)."

"Out of nowhere, I got nailed," Kragthorpe told The Daily Advertiser. "I didn't go down, but I clutched over. I was like, 'Damn, he got me right in my pacemaker.' Then it started fluttering like he jostled it."

Kragthorpe was checked out by a Texas A&M team doctor, and he said he felt "OK, but not as good as I was" and that he "will be seeing my neurologist in Baton Rouge on Monday."

After that. LSU director of player development, former LSU RB and Super Bowl winning New England Patriot, Kevin Faulk started going after Cole Fisher.

Cole then ran to tell his Uncle Jimbo about it.

Will be interesting to see this play out.
