In their home opener, the 14th-ranked Broncos ran over the 16th-ranked Ducks, as Kellen Moore threw for 197 yards and a touchdown to cap a 19-8 Boise State win Thursday night.But all didn't end quietly. As the Broncos started celebrating their victory, defensive lineman Hout yelled in Blount's face and provokingly tapped him on the shoulder. Broncos head coach Chris Petersen responded immediately, but before he could pull his player away, Blount snapped and punched Hout in the jaw.
Hout did indeed provoke Blount, and frankly Blount blindsided the guy as a result, but I absolutely agree with the punishment here. Blount's a loose cannon and there's no place for him in sports if he's going to act like that. As somebody who's had to learn the hard way to keep physical reactions to his temper in check, I can relate to Blount's competitive spirit after getting smoked in the season opener like that.
But you take that off the field and you deal with it like an adult. Period. I would have shitcanned him too.
