WATCH: Auburn punter Oscar Chapman trolls Jameson Williams for second time following ejection
The Auburn players are absolutely loving trolling Alabama’s Jameson Williams today since he was ejected earlier in the Iron Bowl. After he drilled a punt, Auburn punter Oscar Chapman decided to get in on the fun, doing the Karate Kid celebration.
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.
Auburn lost the game 24-22 in four overtimes, so maybe the Tigers celebrated a bit too early.
Jameson Williams explains the karate celebrations
Williams was known for his Karate Kid celebration after scoring touchdowns this season for Alabama. After catching the ball or crossing the goal line for a touchdown, he would strike a karate pose surrounded by his teammates. “It was kind of the week of – and like I said, I don’t know why it was karate – it was just something we came up with.” Williams said during a press conference earlier in the season. “But it’s just been going since then.”
Auburn had controlled much of the game
Auburn was leading for most of the contest until Alabama’s Bryce Young completed a 28-yard touchdown pass to Ja’Corey Brooks to tie the game up at 10-10 with 24 seconds left. The game will certainly go down as one of the all-time classic Iron Bowls.
