Alabama football ended 2022 strong with a 45-20 victory over Kansas State in the Allstate Sugar Bowl.

An executive for Allstate is getting roasted by Crimson Tide fans on Twitter, though. During the trophy presentation, he mispronounced Alabama by saying the “Alabanza” Crimson Tide. Tide fans are letting the executive have it on social media.

Alabama did finish the season with 11 wins and is looking forward to next year.
