Georgia Tech's Geoff Collins rips hand away from Pittsburgh's Pat Narduzzi in postgame handshake
Welcome to the latest college football coaches beef.
Postgame handshakes will always be scrutinized, even in the era of social distancing, and the cameras watched, walk toward each other near midfield after the Pittsburgh Panthers defeated the Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets 34-20 on Thursday.
Collins' stuck his hand out before quickly pulling it away and breezing past Narduzzi, who was left standing there confused.
"I told him, ‘Hey, you’ve got a great team,'" Narduzzi said. "He said, 'Baloney,' or some other nice words, and walked off. I don’t know. I thought it was a good game."
Collins didn't make much of the awkward exchange, which will surely be monitored in future matchups.
"I was just focused on getting our guys over to the band to celebrate," said Collins, who is in his second year at Georgia Tech. "I don’t even remember what I said, to be honest with you."
