LOOK: Smoke Monday trolls Jameson Williams following Williams ejection
College football rivalries and the passion of the players is part of what makes them so great. Today, Auburn’s Smoke Monday decided to troll Alabama’s Jameson Williams in the Iron Bowl with an epic “Karate Kid” celebration once Williams was tossed from the game.
Check it out below.
For now, Monday and the Auburn Tigers can do all the talking they want since they’ve held the high-powered Alabama offense scoreless in the first half. Alabama quarterback Bryce Young just had 70 passing yards in the first half, something that was unthinkable before the game.
As for Jameson Williams, he was limited to 43 receiving yards on just two catches in the first half before he was ejected. Auburn had the lead over Alabama at halftime 7-0.
There were some questionable no-calls as far as pass interference penalties, though. Williams was absolutely wrecked by Auburn’s Roger McCreary before the ball arrived.
Check it out below.
Jameson Williams ejection
Williams was ejected from the game with Auburn and Alabama tied at 0-0. In the second quarter, he hit Auburn punt returner Ja’Varrius Johnson helmet-to-helmet while trying to tackle him.
Below is the clip of the hit.
Williams was called for targeting on the play, which is an ejection. The ejection is a huge loss for the Crimson Tide, as he’s been one of their most consistent and dependable receivers all season long. Since he was ejected in the first half, he won’t have to miss any of Alabama’s next game.
Maybe Auburn celebrated too early
Maybe the Tigers celebrated too early in this one, as Alabama stormed back to win the game in four overtimes, 24-22. Auburn got to have their fun early on in the game with all the trolling, but in the end, the Crimson Tide had the last laugh, in one of the all-time classic Iron Bowls.
If moral victories are such a thing, the Tigers certainly deserve one for controlling much of the game, but in the end the final scoreboard is the one that everyone cares about.
