Controversial Jalon Daniels sequence leads to livid Lance Leipold, Clayton Smith ejection

Things got heated in a hurry on Saturday night’s game between Arizona State and Kansas. It all started when Arizona State got a blatant offsides on a play, with Kansas quarterback Jalon Daniels rolling out to his left to escape that pressure. It was then when he was greeted by Clayton Smith, who flew in with pressure and drilled Daniels to the ground.

The hit caused KU head coach Lance Leipold to erupt on the sidelines. He even ran out on the field and needed to be restrained by members of the Jayhawks coaching staff.

Leipold’s tirade might have been extreme, but it got officials to review the hit for targeting. And they ejected Clayton Smith from the game. Since he was ejected in the second half, Smith will miss the first half of that one.
