Jason Eck turns from officials to his own sideline
CBS Sports College Football's fast-starting Short pairs New Mexico's victory with a heated exchange involving its coach.
Why this story? The video opened at a pace of 163,644 views a day, 13 times a normal first day on this channel (12,709).
New Mexico got the win vs. North Dakota State and improved to 6-1.
New Mexico won, but the celebration isn't what CBS Sports College Football puts on screen. Its Short shows Jason Eck being held back during an argument with officials, then heading toward his own sideline, still shouting and gesturing.
The footage, carrying the CW Sports logo, catches staff trying to manage the confrontation. One staff member holds back a player as Eck directs his attention toward the group. The broadcast commentary places the exchange during an interception return and begins describing a hands-to-the-face incident, but the brief clip doesn't provide the full sequence behind the coach's reaction.
That sideline scene drew about 74,000 views in seven hours, already well beyond the channel's usual full-day audience for a Short. The comment section was also more than three times as busy as a typical first day, with viewers questioning the coach's composure and asking what prompted the exchange.
The upload's title supplies the happier outcome: New Mexico beat North Dakota State and improved to 6-1. The footage itself stays with the heated moment rather than the victory.
