Will Howard and the Ohio State Buckeyes jumped all over the Oregon Ducks on Wednesday at the Rose Bowl's College Football Playoffs quarterfinals game, casting the former Kansas State Wildcat as a hero for Ryan Day's Buckeyes.
After their 41-21 victory, Buckeyes players joined media and dignitaries on stage to celebrate.
Howard, who passed for 319 yards and three touchdowns on the day, was caught up in a head-turning controversy as he was barred from entering the stage platform by game security in video that is just now surfacing on social media.
"Fans could be heard in the background calling for Howard to be let on stage as a member of Rose Bowl security continues to deny him a place.
The stage is the same where fellow Rose Bowl hero Jeremiah Smith was invited for an interview with ESPN personality Rece Davis.
A fellow Buckeyes player can also be seen attempting to figure what is going on with security and why Howard is not being let on stage.
Will Howard can't get on the stage!

"Let him up there," one fan wrote with three laughing and crying emojis including the hashtag #thatsmyquarterback.
