Ahead of the Iron Bowl, Auburn football tweeted a pregame graphic showing a pair of giant tigers stalking a smaller Bryant-Denny Stadium with an elephant on the field. But it was bitter rival Alabama with the last laugh.

After the Crimson Tide topped the Tigers, 49-27, in the regular season finale, the Alabama football Twitter account came out swinging. And they definitely landed a clean punch, posting a retread of the Auburn graphic with a massive elephant behind the pair of tigers.

“Fixed it for you. #RollTide,” Alabama football wrote to accompany the graphic.

Sometimes it’s not enough to just win on the field, especially against a bitter rival. Alabama earned the last laugh on Saturday.

Alabama head coach Nick Saban got cut on his cheek Saturday and joked about it postgame

During the Iron Bowl on Saturday, Nick Saban got nicked up. The Alabama head coach appeared to take a shoulder pad to the face, resulting in a bloody cheek on the sideline.

As he walked into the postgame press conference — his left cheek still bruised and bloodied — Saban wasted no time addressing his appearance.

“Before you ask, you ought to see the other guy,” Saban joked.

It didn’t impact Saban’s performance on the sidelines, though. He helped lead Alabama to a resounding 49-27 victory over Auburn to secure another 10-win season. The Crimson Tide might find themselves on the outside looking in of the College Football Playoff, but it was still another big year in Tuscaloosa.

Earlier in the game, when Saban first got cut, sideline reporter Jenny Dell chimed in with an injury report on the Alabama head coach.

“Well there’s a little bit of blood on Nick Saban’s cheek, so I had to do some investigating,” Dell reported. “Turns out he got scraped by a player’s shoulder pad, but don’t worry, Alabama’s medical staff, they said he’s good to return.”
