I saw the Bama player snatch away and turn. He didn't punch Dipshit, but it's entirely possible he made contact with him. Throwing your arms and shoving away got the flag and should have.
The only thing I take issue with is that idiot getting the giggles over a player getting penalized. He looked stupid.
But as I see the video, this is hardly the way al.com is trying to spin it. The flag was deserved. The reaction was juvenile. It's not like he went in and faked anything just to get the flag.
Bama fans are whiny fucking bitches. Add this to the list. If the exact same situation had happened with Saban they'd be calling for the entire Arkansas program to be disbanded and the player in question banned from the sport of football for life.
