Former Tennessee football wide receiver Squirrel White had an all-too-up-close view of the field storming after Virginia beat Florida State.
The Seminoles wide receiver was the target for a desperate heave from quarterback Tommy Castellanos on fourth-and-12 in double overtime. The pass was intercepted by Virginia’s Ja’Son Prevard in front of White, who tumbled to the ground in the end zone.
Virginia students flooded the field in a flash from their positioning on a hill behind the end zone to celebrate the 46-38 win. White was still on the ground and was immediately engulfed, vanishing underneath the rush of students.

It is unclear if White, Prevard or any other players near the end zone were injured in the field storming.
White had 131 receptions for 1,665 yards and six touchdowns in three seasons at Tennessee before transferring to FSU.
The 5-foot-10, 178-pound receiver led the Vols with 803 yards receiving in 2023. He had 34 catches for 381 yards and two touchdowns in 2024.
