Florida high school football game erupts into violent brawl involving players, coaches after final whistle

Another fantastic week of high school football in the books! Hard to believe, but we’re already halfway through the regular season. Stunning, right?

Feels like we just fired up the stadium lights for the preseason classics in August, and here we are, already in the first weekend of October.

Final month of the season is here. Time to lock in, fellas.

I’ve taken it upon myself here at OutKick to highlight at least one high school football play/ player/ story each and every Saturday during the season. These guys are all about to be millionaires with the silly NIL rules, so we might as well get ahead of the curve and start identifying them early.

BEHEMOTH HIGH SCHOOL FOOTBALL STAR SLAMS DEFENDER TO THE GROUND LIKE A RAGDOLL AFTER INTERCEPTION

So far this season, we’ve seen (arguably) the country’s top running back do incredible things in Tennessee on multiple different occasions, a wild Hail Mary in Florida, an entire California team get suspended because the mascot shot the bird to some fans, and, last week, a giant running back in Kentucky.

What a run we’ve been on, and I can assure you, it won’t end today.

Nope. Today, we’re gonna stay in my own backyard and check in on this week’s Deltona-Matanzas game in Central Florida.

Things got a little … out of hand … after the final buzzer went off.

Take a look:

High school football game takes a nasty turn

Whoaaaaaaaaa Nellie! Look at that brawl. What a scrum.

Those are my old stomping grounds, by the way. I spent seven years covering high school football in Volusia County. I miss one thing about my former job, and this is it. High school football Friday nights. They’re undefeated. You never know what you’re gonna get.

According to Zach Allen of the Daytona Beach News-Journal, these guys were going back and forth all night. Sometimes, you can just feel when a fight’s gonna break out in these games. Your spidey-senses start tingling as the game winds down, and something just tells you to start rolling the camera.

Right on cue … chaos.

I count at least five different fights at once, spanning the entire width of the field. Little scrums. Big ones. One-on-ones. Just pure anarchy. No clue who was blowing the whistle the whole time, but, clearly, nobody got the message.

I see multiple helmets being tossed. I see cops getting involved. I see coaches trying to yank players from different scums all over the place.

Headsets are on the ground. Players are on the ground. One coach appears to take a pretty serious tumble. At the very end, it appears one player is helping another injured teammate off the field.

Not great. None of it is a great look. Feel like that goes without saying. I would imagine multiple players from both teams will be suspended after this. Perhaps the respective coaching staffs, too.

Don’t forget, we had an entire team out in California suspended two weeks ago, including the coaches.

We’ll see if Volusia County drops the hammer in similar fashion after this.

What a brawl.
