Twitter Freaks Out After Alabama Kicker Missing Game-Winning Field Goal

After Alabama tied the College Football Playoff National Championship, the team failed to put Georgia away. They missed the field goal, sending the game into overtime.

Most of Twitter was excited to see Alabama miss its chance to end the game.

But all that celebrating was only a fleeting moment, as Alabama won the title anyway. Thanks to an astounding touchdown pass, head coach Nick Saban secured his sixth National Championship victory.

Alabama’s new slogan should be “Roll Wide” :laughing:

I’ve said in in past years and I’ll say it again. Alabama is the best program in the country. It’s truly amazing that they can’t get a decent kicker

Only good thing about that Alabama win is that field goal kicker’s rest of life has been saved. His ENTIRE life.
