A spokesman for the University of Massachusetts in Amherst says 14 people have been arrested after police in riot gear and on horseback were forced to disperse hundreds of students when the Patriots lost the Super Bowl. Police used smoke bombs to disperse 1,500 students who gathered in the main residential part of the campus after the game. There were some fistfights, but no one was hurt badly enough to be taken to a hospital and no property damage was reported, said spokesman Ed Blaguszewski. Thirteen of those arrested were students, and all were charged with failure to disperse or disorderly conduct or both. They will be referred to the dean of students for possible disciplinary action. The school, with more than 27,000 students, is the flagship of the University of Massachusetts system. Police monitoring the situation decided to issue a dispersal order about 15 minutes after students started gathering. It took about 90 minutes to get everyone out of the area. "It was a loud crowd and there were fights breaking out in pockets," Blaguszewski said. Read more: http://espn.go.com/boston/nfl/story...per-bowl-14-arrested-umass-amherst-super-bowl
