No. I think that is obviously excessive, but I think running the score in sports is generally fine. That one is over the top, but a suspension isn't needed.

The team that scored 4 should apologize for wasting everyone’s time.

They should give them a trophy for the 4 points at least.

Talk about insult to injury? Loved the chuckle, though. +1

I remember after a Danny Ford coached team stomped WF about 81-28, or something, the WF coach being asked if he were angry at coach Ford and Clemson for the stomping. The WF coach said, "it's not Clemson's job to keep from scoring. It's our job to stop them from scoring", or something close to that. When a coach has a team that horrible, I guess it's up to that coach to get his girls to play better, rather than to have a coach teach his girls to lay down and not do their best? JMO, and I'm sure others disagree, but I doubt this was the first shellacking the losing team has had this year. Also, I would expect the winning coach emptied his bench early to help, but I may be wrong.

scored 12 touchdowns on a gray, cloudy day. Just happened to get invited by some longtime Clemson fans, and it turned out to be a historic day

Heck no! To echo the sentiments of others, it's not my fault my team scored so much!
For 2 years, I coached a charter middle school boys basketball team comprised of 7th & 8th graders who were part of some of the best AAU programs in Upstate SC. We played against a middle school boys team from a classical learning school in Greenville, and beat them like 100-6. Every player on my team had at least 6 points. After the game, their coach said, "We needed to get humbled like that. We just beat a team 50-15 last night, and my boys thought they could do it again. Until y'all started warming up."
Should I have been suspended for that? Heck no, because like Herm Edwards said, "You play to win the game!"

I’ve had my butt kicked in Tennis & Golf, I would have been really upset had I thought the opponent gave me ever one point or game period. You want to play teams or individuals that give their best on every play.

to have your entire varsity, jv and middle school teams on the bench. Once it gets out of hand, bring in the underclassmen.

92 points for girls is legit

Most college girls teams don’t score that much. Even WNBA teams. So, that’s pretty cool.

Judging from the responses here, sportsmanship is truly dead.

Running up the score feels like poor form but it is worse to simply quit trying in order to make the opponent feel better...

Against Wake in 1981 a third team Linebacker playing running back went 80 yds for a TD on his first and I believe only carry.

If I remember correctly several years ago we were beating SC State badly at halftime. Dabo offered to either end the game at the half or just let the clock run in the second half and not stop it for any reason. I believe the running clock option was chosen. It prevented potential injury to a less physically talented team and also prevented further humiliation to our in state neighbors and friends. Maybe something like this should have been chosen. These teams clearly didn't belong on the same courr.
