Harbor, who is a junior at South Carolina , scored an impressive 80-yard touchdown where he simply outran the entire Aggies defense. After his score, he ran into the tunnel with his teammates behind him. As they were leaving the tunnel, a cop approached the South Carolina players and shoulder checked them before turning and yelling at them.
That short altercation has the entire college football world buzzing, as fans and sports personalities alike are calling out the cop's actions. Some are completely disgusted, while others think that the police officer should be banned from future games.
"This cop should never work a football game again," said Brandon Walker of Barstool Sports .

"Lol. The sheriff at Texas A&M walking up the jetway and bumping South Carolina players after going down 27-3 on another long TD. He BIG maaaaad," exclaimed another sports fan .
One user explained , "There are several good cops, & there are more bad cops than anyone wants to admit. This cop was looking to size the South Carolina players up & cause a scene. That's pathetic & unfortunate."

Texas A&M and South Carolina are continuing with the contest as scheduled, as the Aggies have managed to bring the score to 30-17 in the third quarter. However, the cop's actions could lead to some decision-making from the university or even the police department in College Station.
