KU student here!! I was at the OSU-KU game last week and obviously rushed the field like I have all season.
However, being right next to the post coming down was scary, but I didn't see anyone get hurt.
UNTIL people starting moving the posts and these girls (maybe half a dozen of them) were being crushed/trampled by the bodyweight of 20 people trying to leave the stadium. It was genuinely terrifying watching them screaming and crying under the pile. Lowkey Astroworld shit but they did get out okay.
I understand it’s kinda exciting having a semi relevant team again but it’s kinda lame rushing the field after every win.. at least try to act like you’ve been there before lol
@@darthsilversith667 🤓🤓🤓🤓🤓
Geuax tigers. Also k-state will win again this year
@@jackwilburn6667 he's speaking facts though
I’m a BYU fan and I remember that game vs Utah, our most hated rival. Awful. Absolutely awful.
I've never seen the field stormed as much as Tennessee after they beat Alabama. Fun fact the river that the fans threw the field goal post in is now considered a tourist attraction.
Heck I would have cut it up and sold them on EBay and made a fortune
@@user-bz9ld2go3g Nice!
@@user-bz9ld2go3g lol they did that too
It’s called the Tennessee river…
@@danielford2369 you act like anyone outside of Tennessee actually cares what its callled
I need to hear more about the Florida V Florida State Field Goal Post Jousting match. This for sure deserves a full deep dive lol.
Fr tho, as soon as i heard this all I could think was “this sounds like something UNC and Duke fans would do to each other. This some real rivalry type mess😂”
The most civilized meet up between fsu and uf fans
Fr I’ve been a gator my whole life and never knew that!
Facts lol
I agree
Honestly I'd pay an insane amount of money to watch 2 mobs joust on a football field with goal posts while a band plays the star spangled banner, that would be unbelievable.
That would be a true American moment
Me too.
Storming the field at one of my high school football games was one of my core memories from this year.
We did it once in HS. We beat our biggest rival for the first time in 30 years. It was at our rivals stadium so it was extra sweet. One of my friends managed to get on top of their press box and waved our flag and , if not for our principal grabbing the flag from a students hands, planting it at their 50 yard line
It’s fun , it’s an outpouring of emotion and I get it. I also see really bad safety issues and my stomach is in knots worried something bad will happen
@@totallynotalpharius2283 done it about 10 times We always rush the field after a win in high school
Same we beat our rival for the first time in 5 years to make it into the playoffs for the first time in at least 20 years (prob longer). But sadly we got in big trouble for that and couldn't storm the field for the playoff game we won. Trust me, I tried
Wouldn't be so fun to the peiple injured
My old highschool "rushes" the field after every game. The team does a prayer with the fans before everybody leaves.
Just to add to the video, there's an ESPN article that details what the clean up was like after the Tennessee game. The clean up crew was their until 2 AM after the game. "I went there and I literally picked up seven heaping handfuls of broken glass from the cigar tubes and cigar caps," Sorochan said. "It was crazy."
"It was shoulder to shoulder, and the average person is probably about one and a half square feet," he said. "So there were probably 50,000 people on the field."
Just wanted to add this as an interesting tidbit. For those who want to read that whole article, here's a link.

Dang
That makes me think of the recent stories on NFL games in other countries in advance of the Seattle Seahawks vs Tampa Bay Buccaneers in Munich where they'd never sold that much food before so they didn't know what to do to clean the rubbish bins etc.
That’s crazy
As always you are a genius my guy, football brings me so much happiness and learning more, and learning through you is amazing, watching you since 2018 has brought me so much joy, and it’s not just me, it’s all of you fans, we love bro and you are so awesome. Much love, God first, God bless and goodnight
@@Misslastate2001 hello fellow Saints fan⚜️
LSU telling Kentucky fans to sit back down with a hail mary touchdown is one of the greatest things ever😂
nah, blowing out "#1" LSU in 2007 was
@@telesniper2 we didn’t blow them out. Lol. Took 3 OTs to do it. But it’s nice knowing we beat the eventual national champion.
That oooo sound effect killed me. 0:29 KTO's comedy is evolving 😂
Rushing the field last year at the Minnesota - Wisconsin game was one of the best moments of my college years so far
You live in Madison I saw you’re house just yesterday when I was looking for you Conner
Mine was when Arizona State beat Arizona to end a 10 game winless streak in 1991.
I stormed the field when I was a student at PSU for the 2016 PSU vs OSU game. It was absolute pandemonium on the field, and in every part of State College after. My brother, who was working auxiliary police that night, told me to "avoid going down Beaver Ave. and you wont get arrested". Probably one of my top 3 moments of my entire college experience
I was in the nosebleeds for that game and after the game we had to drop my sister off at her apartment downtown state college, it was pandemonium like you said. I saw a guy rip a bush out from the sidewalk and carry it inside, wild stuff
Sounds like a shitty college tenure if running onto grass is a top 3 moment.
@@TheShoelace17what happened on beaver ave
Bros topics are always on point and intriguing
I am a KU Journalism student and sports media member, it was wild seeing goal post come down. Saw security cam footage, allegedly some fraternity members went to Potter Lake (where the crowd dumped it) aand recovered the goal posts from the lake. They're allegedly in some fraternities basement in Lawrence, Kansas. Also shoutout Caroline Soro for the footage you used of KU's goal post, colleague of mine.
Why arent these crazy students punished?? Police need to investigate
@@BoleDaPole not that deep
@@BoleDaPole because it's fucking awesome.
Iowa fan here, I'll always remember in 2002 when Iowa tore down Minnesota's goalposts after winning a share of the Big Ten title
Rushed the field in 2011 when Ohio state beat ranked Wisconsin led by Russell Wilson. It was an amazing feeling to be down there with everyone after that win.
We were shit that year without a true head coach but today you’d never catch us rushing the field after beating Wisconsin ranked or not lol
The Florida and Florida State jousting sounds like a true Renaissance painting.
1:06 I was at that game. There’s a good 8-10 foot drop to the field and people who aren’t use to that jump just ate it and turned ankles. Go Pokes!
The fact you can make documentary like videos and condense then to a quick video takes a lot of talent
Does it..
I was in OU's marching band last season when OSU beat us in Stillwater, the crowd rushed the field and security had to clear them off before they could escort us out so we just had to sit there for about an hour waiting, marinating in the loss. The next day was when Lincoln Riley announced he was going to USC. Wasn't a great weekend, overall
as a rutgers/bc fan, seeing them featured as the first two field stormings was a moment i haven't seen since your 2007 video, keep up the great work!
KTO you’re a f*ckin legend
Glad everyone got to see a close up of Potter Lake.
A major riot broke out in the late '80's when East Carolina fans stormed the field at NC State's stadium and tried to tear down the goal posts.
That’s not too bad tbh
Good thumbnail
fr
Thanks
Good soup
Best
Agreed
As an Iowa fan when Tennessee tore down the goalposts it reminded me when we tore down Minnesota's goalposts in 2002
In the Metrodome on top of that. That was hilarious as hell.
Another Hawkeye fan here and that was also my first thought lol.
@@explosivereactionstv7414 The vikings had a game the next day too. They were pissed
@@bananagonz3461 wouldn’t blame them at all. I’d be mad myself
i play american football at university in the uk and the thing you talked about at 6:45 happens to us every year against UWE; they scout in ncaa d1 postgrad students and dominate every year. It hurts
We need more college football videos
I remember going on a campus tour of Kansas and they told us they have a pond that they throw their goal post in after a win some are still missing to this day.
I love the storming the field tradition!
It better not end!!!
Once again, amazing video, you are my favorite person to watch on RUclips. Your videos are excellent
It's a good day any day KTO uploads a new video!!!
Storming the field or court is one of the greatest experiences ever as a college sports fan. Celebrating victory with the fans and players as the fight song erupts is one of the most incredible experiences. Anyone who hates people for doing it or says “act like you’ve been here before” is just jealous that they’ve never got to experience it for themselves.
damn straight. I love seeing it.
Hope no one was seriously injured just so you could have an 'incredible' experience. Good reductionist argument too. I'm sure no one could have a reasonable argument against field storming. They're clearly just jealous.
@@TheLoos3Goos33 Yawn. Ok grandma.
I rushed the field when Texas Tech beat Texas earlier this season. It was fucking surreal being in the pile with the football team signing the school song.
@@TheLoos3Goos33 Problem is, I’ve never seen people argue against field stormings as a matter of safety. It’s usually criticized as “undignified” and “amateurish” behavior instead of “dangerous”.
Great video as always!!!
You can’t have KTO without Seat Geek
Hell yeah, great vid my guy, love the channel!!!
Interesting and unique idea! Great job!
Thank you kto for this amazing video
Keep up the great work
I was literally watching this channel before I noticed the new video. What a legend
This is a banger already
KTO is such a solid RUclips follow, very underrated.
Love the videos
I've only got to storm the field once, and that was in Ann Arbor on 11/27/21. It's definitely my favorite memory at THE BIG HOUSE!
It's a good day when the goat uploads 🐐
one of my fave channels, gotta click on every post as soon as i see 'em
Nothing better than a TKO video on Friday
Storming the field is awesome. I did once when my college went to the FCS finals for the first time. It was great to see that happen. People meeting at the middle of the field and high fiving the players. It was a great night.
My favorite sports memory was November of 2016 when Colorado beat Utah to win the pac12 south and everyone rushed Folsom. I hope to relive that some day
Love your video man
KTOOOOOOO!! That last one is hilarious lol. To be on the field to know what happened and see their faces as they figure it out.
People used to be crazy, this is hilarious
Used to?
@@DG-ez6of Where do you think we learned it from?
@@Fractured_Unity his point is ppl are still crazy not that they werent back then 🤦♂️
1978, Nebraska @ Penn State, we (PSU) won in a nail-biter. (We won the national championship in that, my senior year.) The fans stormed the field and tore down the goalpost at the student section end of the field. I wasn't a part of that but a short time later I found myself on College Ave (the main drag in State College PA), somehow at the head of the group carrying the goalpost. We were confused about what to do with the thing and somebody called out, "Where should we take it?" I yelled back "Old Main!" and the crowd started chanting, "Old Main! Old Main! Old Main!"
And that's how that goalpost ended up on the lawn in front of the Penn State administration building.
Not surprised about Montana. Used to live in small town of Wyoming and I can actually picture the moment of the goal post being shoved into the bar of the small town. LOL
I absolutely love it 💯
We haven’t done it at Sanford in 20 years tho. Gotta love the hedges lol
I was at the crowd crush at Camp Randall in 1993. On of my lasting memories of going to college football games, but not in a good way.
Storming the Field I feel like should be saved for a special moment in that team's history not just beating Alabama, even though that is impressive in itself, it should be when your team wins a bowl game or when you are the underdog by so many points and you come up with the win. Special moments in history that deserve the event of fans storming the field.
OK as a TN fan I'll give some important context, you gotta remember when we rushed the field (When beating alabama) We had just broken a 15 game losing streak 15 straight years of them kicking us, then, 1 ugliest field goal ever, we win.
@@ianfleming008bsi8 I think he’s more referring to LSU. I don’t think that was THAT deserved
@@logo115 It was their first win against Alabama in Baton Rouge since 2010.
For Tennessee or LSU? Because Tennessee was absolutely right for the moment
that WAS a special moment in that teams history
0:29 I love that "OOF" sound
I’m saddened he did not mention the Iowa Minnesota game where the goalposts got taken by the Iowa fans
8:00 i was just lookin this up bro thank you because I couldn’t find it.
I'll always remember that Rutgers vs Louisville! The kicker kick that field goal and pointed up at the heli-cam, swag!
Storming the field after the past two LSU games have been some of the most exciting moments of my life. It should never be banned.
It kind of waters down the event though if you’re going to do it after every win 🤷🏻♂️
Storming the field is the greatest experience ever. I did it twice. Anyone who hates against or says “act like you’ve been there before” is just jealous they’ve never been able to do it.
@@P51DFreak25 My team is Ohio State.. we could rush the field on a damn near weekly basis lol
@@P51DFreak25 And I am not against rushing the field.. I just don’t think it’s necessary unless that game was for some sort of championship.
@@darthsilversith667 I think that’s fair. But when your school pulls off a massive upset. My school upset a top 2 basketball team while being unranked. That’s storm worthy. Knocking off a rival you haven’t beat in a long time is storm worthy. If your team has been historically bad and then finally getting a win can be storm worthy. Michigan over Ohio State last year is absolutely storm worthy
I'm so proud to have the vols fans be the thumbnail of this video
I got to experience this for the first time Friday. Unforgettable.
I was at that Holy War game in 2011. Typical refball at the end almost lost us the game. It was mainly our student section that was rushing the field. Such a weird game but almost normal in the rivalry. Go Utes
Honestly this is one of the best thing about upsets
Going on the field after games (meeting at the paw) has been a tradition at Clemson since the FSU victory in 2003. To the point that growing up as a Clemson fan I didn’t really realize that it was abnormal. The university even installed mechanical goal posts that drop on their own to keep fans from messing with them.
I can’t remember what year it was, but after Texas Tech won an underdog game and rushed the field they tore down the goal posts. Ever since then we have the same thing a set of mechanical goalposts, so whenever we rush they’re quick to get them down.
Great vid
didn't even watch vid yet just the topic alone you are a legend lol
I'm kinda surprised at how little effort has been made to at least moderate field storms slightly.
The Tennessee storm was probably the craziest one there has been, a cut to Fireworks and then back and there was no green to be seen. Most of the others has left way too much green to be able to compete with UT's attempt.
Quite impressed how there has been over 100 years of storming yet very little notable unsatisfactory outcomes but I still think there will be some additional regulation and changes regarding them in the upcoming season.
The best attempts to stop field storms that I have seen are stadium layouts and how easy it is to get on the turf from a higher-up seat.
Great video
Ah, this is a great video showcasing the classic storming the field.
Running the field after this year's Bowling Green/Marshall game which BG was winless and Marshall was undefeated and a week after winning in South Bend was a bucket list moment for me but probably won't do that again for safety.
I remember watching that LSU one live.
I went to the civil war game in 2022 and was about 20 feet away from a duck player hauling off and punching a beaver fan after the beavs came back and won and the fans stormed. Crazy shit.
KTO da 🐐
As a proud East Tennessean and Vol fan, I never expected to see Robin Wilhoit in a KTO video
Two of my favorite memories ever are storming the field after BYU snapped their 9-game losing streak to Utah and storming it again the next year when they beat Baylor in 2OT. Field storming is one of the greatest things about college football
0:14 I was there storming that field when Rutgers upset Louisville....awesome moment...also stormed the field the next season when Rutgers upset USF
The FSU and Florida jousting with field goal post is the only video I want to see!
Man having your ashes spread on the field is real commitment!! That’s why we love college football!!
Never would I of thought that I’d be on the cover of a KTO video 😅
god i love this channel
As a BYU fan that whole sequence left me in a state of shock for an hour
Awesome. Just like on the very first ever made TECMO BOWL on the arcade. When you win the game at the end of the 4th quarter.
as a vol fan, thanks for the thumbnail!
Babe wake up a new KTO video dropped
Texas Tech in 2001 tore down their goal post after defeating Texas A&M and threw into the visitor’s section. The chaos led to many fights including Governor Rick Perry being punched in the face by an unknown assailant.
2:25 so apparently a long time ago like over 20 years ago Purdue tasked its student engineers with building a way to prevent people from tearing the goal post down
I appreciate Clemson not being brought up in this. We get chastised a lot for our “Meeting at the Paw” tradition. Win or lose the fans join the team at midfield (or as close as you can get) and sing the Alma Mater along with them as the band plays, then they leave the stadium open so folks get to just hang out on the field. Kids take footballs and run routes, catch passes, and score TDs on the same field they just saw their team play on and it’s just awesome. Go Tigers!
W video like all ways KTO first one
I love your channel bro
My favorite is Iowa storming the field and tearing down the goalposts after beating Minnesota... in Minnesota. Then carrying the thing around the Metrodome tryna figure out how to get it out
as a sports fan storming a field/court after an upset should be something on your bucket list. i’ve always wanted to experience something like that
Life long Kentucky fan here.... Thanks for the final send off KTO...... I was hoping you were going to skip that one.
5:13
I'm an FSU fan and never heard about that lol
If you were to ask me, that pretty much summarizes the history of the Florida Florida state rivalry
Man I can't believe that LSU vs Kentucky game was 20 years ago. I remember watching it.
Finally posting college football video!
I was working on the town square in Oxford when Ole Miss beat Alabama in 2014. One of the dishwashers came in from smoking a cigarette and said something about a bunch of people carrying "some kind of flag pole." I walked out the back door to see a group of guys carrying the field goal post through the square. The square is over a mile from the stadium. They carried that thing on a tour of Oxford. Also, I've never seen more people that were literally falling down drunk than I did that day.
That goal post fight is so Florida 🤣
can you imagine just battling it out with another goal post as the star spangled banner is playing in the background 😂😂 that’s some funny shit
Never underestimate the florida man. He is capable of anything.
Iowa once tore down the goalposts at an away game and took them out of the stadium and supposedly brought the posts back to Iowa
