The passion behind college football fans is real y’all!

Meanwhile in Oregon . . .

Two friends got into a fight in Bend, OR while watching Saturday’s ‘Bama-LSU game and we’re going to go ahead and guess their friendship is dunzo!

Christopher Honey (51) had his buddy from Maine in town for a visit and the lifelong friends were watching the game, cheering on the opposing teams.

Things got real hot real quick, and the visiting buddy stormed out of the house . . . so Christopher SHOT HIS FRIEND with a shotgun as he was walking down the driveway.

The birdshot shell hit the guy in the head and neck, sending him to the hospital!

His injuries, thankfully, were not life threatening, but Christopher was arrested and is looking at charges for attempted murder, assault, unlawful use of a weapon, and menacing!!

Not sure exactly which guy was routing for which team . . .
