Blount said he didn’t even hear what the Boise State player said to him. Apparently it was that simple tap on the shoulder that set him off.
Just seconds before this incident even occurred, there were two or three Ducks players fighting amongst themselves and they had to be separated. According to the Portland Oregonian, some Oregon players were also disrespecting Chip Kelly on the sidelines during the game. Then Blount took a swing at one of his own teammates after mixing it up with the Bronco.
Some folks are trying to make the case that the Boise State player was to blame for this entire thing(with, apparently, a mere tap on a shoulder pad and some unheard words). But it seems to me that the University of Oregon football team has developed a bit of discipline issue with the transition from Belotti to Kelly.

Good riddance.
