Illinois' 21-17 win over South Carolina in the Citrus Bowl -- a historic marker for the Fighting Illini, who for the first time since 2001 eclipsed 10 wins in season -- was overshadowed by a bizarre feud between two of college football's most colorful head coaches.

Illinois head coach Bret Bielema and South Carolina's Shane Beamer got into it during the Cheez-It Citrus Bowl Tuesday night and it doesn't seem like their feud will calm down anytime soon. Beamer explained that he believed Bielema was upset because of a trick play South Carolina ran on a kickoff return.

Shane Beamer's South Carolina squad lined up against Bret Bielema's Illinois squad in this year's Cheez-It Citrus Bowl after being two of the better squads in the sport throughout the regular season. However, in the third quarter of the New Year's Eve matchup, Beamer and Bielema were visually upset with one another on the field.
