VIDEO: LSU Fan Taking Heat Over GameDay Sign Making Fun of Feleipe Franks' Injury
By Chris Pyo
Stay classy, LSU fans. College GameDay was being televised live in Baton Rouge in anticipation of the highly-anticipated matchup between No. 5 LSU and No. 7 Florida. However, LSU fans didn't hold back when it came to their signs and one in particular took things way too far...

In the midst of the "Burrow threw 6 touchdowns getting off the bus" and "Dan Mullen orders extra coleslaw" signs, which are all good natured, you can see a cutout of Franks' Gators jersey, and a dangling, dislocated ankle.
The fan even spins his leg around once at the end. Wow.
Franks suffered the gruesome injury against Kentucky earlier in the season and was immediately ruled out for the season in a tough break for the junior quarterback.
Catching up on the HBO Florida #Gators episode....

The fact that Dan Mullen's wife had to check with compliance to be sure it was "legal" for her to take food to an injured Feleipe Franks is INSANE!
This better fuel the flame for Mullen's Florida team, which definitely misses Franks at quarterback, but has otherwise been doing just fine for the season, with a recent win over No. 12 Auburn.
Again, stay classy down south, LSU fans.
