Players and even coaches from Clemson and Kentucky had to be separated during pregame activities at the Gator Bowl this morning.
Officials managed to get the teams apart to prevent any further escalation.
If nothing else, this should get both teams ready for what figures to be a pretty solid bowl game:

According to Jon Hale:
Officials trying to prevent a skirmish here in early warmups at the Gator Bowl. Barion Brown, Maxwell Hairston among UK players exchanging words with Clemson players at midfield. Vince Marrow also trying to diffuse the situation.
