Arizona State star Cam Skattebo 'vomits profusely' during dramatic overtime Peach Bowl loss to Texas
Share:
Arizona State running back Cam Skattebo was forced to endure a disgusting sideline moment before producing a stunning resurgence in Wednesday's Peach Bowl. The 22-year-old inspired a stunning comeback for the Sun Devils against Texas before it ultimately fell short in a 39-31 overtime thriller.
And, while the finish of the matchup didn't end in fairytale fashion for Arizona, the beginning of Skattebo's game wasn't completely plain-sailing either. The Longhorns' defense produced a stellar job of holding off Arizona's offense through the first two quarters and tensions appeared to boil over on the Sun Devils' sideline.
Skattebo was caught yelling at his teammates and angrily slamming his helmet as the Sun Devils, already down multiple scores to Texas, continued to struggle. Yet, things went from bad to worse for Skattebo, who finished fifth in last month's Heisman Trophy voting, when he lost his lunch.

However, Skattebo's disgusting sideline moment appeared to have alleviated some of the tension as he came into his own. Midway through the fourth quarter, Skattebo and Arizona finally managed to get their first touchdown on the board. On fourth-and-2 from the Texas 42-yard line, Skattebo took a pitch and then threw a pass to Malik McClain, before the Sun Devils secured the two-point conversion to claw the score to 24-16 with 6:31 remaining.
