South Carolina's Dylan Stewart punches Alabama player, isn't ejected

During the final quarter of the game, South Carolina defender Dylan Stewart struck Alabama tight end Josh Ford in the head following a one-yard rushing touchdown by Daniel Hill that widened the deficit to 42-18. Despite television rules analyst Jerry McGinn arguing that the edge rusher deserved an immediate ejection, the official on the field only issued an unsportsmanlike conduct penalty.

Stewart had been playing through a lingering back injury during the contest and was earlier seen on camera being reprimanded by South Carolina head coach Shane Beamer. The difficult performance compounded a tough stretch for the program, which sits at four wins and eight losses following last season.
