The game ended up becoming a footnote when a ref brought his guns out and stole the show. One official was making a call when fans couldn’t help but notice how jacked he was.

Jeremy Moussa overcame a frustrating first half to throw three fourth-quarter touchdown passes as he powered Florida A&M’s comeback past Howard 30-26 on Saturday in the Celebration Bowl.
