The dean of admissions at the University of Pennsylvania was caught on camera screaming a four-letter word during the closing minutes of a nationally broadcast football game – and it wasn’t “Penn.”

Eric Furda was among thousands of Philadelphia Eagles fans who howled in frustration during the fourth quarter of their team’s bumbling, 27-24 loss to the visiting Detroit Lions on Sunday.

An 8-second video of Furda melting down in the stands at Lincoln Finanical Field racked up more than 870,000 views after it was posted on Twitter by CBS Sports writer Will Brison, who wrote, “Can’t stop watching this irate Eagles fan.”

The video shows the Ivy Leaguer waving his arms and shouting so hard that the neck tendons are visible under his skin.

Three speech-reading experts interpreted his words as, “What are you looking at? Boooo!! What the [blank] are you looking at?” according to the Philadelphia Inquirer.

“I’m pretty sure we can all read some pretty colorful language in what he was saying,” said Robert Serianni, chair and program director of the department of speech-language pathology at Salus University in Elkins Park, Pennsylvania.

Furda, a Penn grad who’s been dean of admissions since 2008, offered a Monday-morning mea culpa for his boisterous behavior.

“After further review of the play I will take the 15 yard penalty for unsportsmanlike conduct,” he tweeted.

“But I will not lose my passion for Philadelphia and Penn sports!”

Furda also declined “all the interview requests,” noting that “we have a game on Thursday to get ready for which I will watch at home!”
