ACC suspends NC State, UNC players for half-game after fight

The ACC issued half-game suspensions and public reprimands to seven total players from NC State and North Carolina involved in a fight at the end of their game last Saturday.

In a statement Monday, the ACC identified North Carolina players Dominique Ross, Patrice Rene, J.K. Britt and Jeremiah Clarke, and NC State players Freddie Phillips Jr., Tyler Jones and Justin Witt after reviewing video from the Wolfpack's 34-28 overtime win. The fight started in the end zone, right after Reggie Gallaspy crossed the goal line for the game-winning score.
