Earlier in the week, Nick Saban got a tip from the media about the potential “horns down” penalty and he vowed to address it with the team.
Although none of Alabama’s 15 penalties came at the expense of the gesture, a few players decided to take part right at the completion of the game.
Unfortunately for those partaking, Saban caught them and gave them a stern warning.
“Don’t do that shit,” Saban yelled.

It’s easy to catch a few players in passing but several more were flashing the gesture as it headed to the locker room following the narrow 20-19 victory.
