I think the closest analogy to last weekend's play is the 1954 Cotton Bowl where an Alabama player on the bench came off the bench to knock down Rice RB, Dicky Moegle, who was running free for a TD.
BTW Rice clobbered Alabama in that game. Times have changed since 1954 in terms of college football programs...

Old Woody punched one of his OWN players too.
Crazy man was fired for that.
Woody Hayes had a history of neurotic meltdowns on the field, so perhaps in total, he was worse, but the crap this Jets coach pulled is a severe offense on its own.
