Tensions rose at the first Sugar Bowl game of the year after live mascots from the Texas Longhorns and Georgia Bulldogs faced off. In a tense pregame meeting, Texas steer mascot Bevo XV aggressively charged down Georgia canine mascot Uga X who responded by retreating back into his territory.

Handlers for the mascots had tried to position them for a photo opportunity but Bevo rapidly moved towards Uga, sporting a bright red Georgia sweater, knocking down metal barriers and creating a moment of panic.
