VIDEO: Tulane Player Performs Blatant Flop to Get Southern Miss Flagged for Unsportsmanlike Conduct
By Sean Facey
When it comes to bowl games, every yard counts! Naturally, when there's a chance to draw a penalty, most players are more than willing to sell the most advantageous narrative possible order to get the call. One Tulane player, however, took the art of flopping to new heights in Saturday's Armed Forces Bowl in order to snag a 15-yard unsportsmanlike conduct call on Southern Mississippi's Trivensky Mosley.

Wow. That's Oscar-level stuff right there. Daniel Day-Lewis must have been a guest lecturer at Tulane last semester.
Mosley's light shove was met with an incredibly operatic dive from the Tulane player that probably got the official to throw the flag solely out of respect for his commitment.
Tulane with the best flop I’ve seen this year oh my lord

Forget football, that player might have a future on Broadway with those acting skills. The bright lights are calling!
