That's exactly what it looked like anyways. Just got excited and tried to take him down.

However, if you watch that film, he shouldn't have to face a suspension because the Mizzou players started "giving him the business" for the following 2 plays.

Helmet comes off and Mizzou OL starts punching him. I suspect his tackle was why no flag was thrown but I don't see why he should get punished on top of that.

The one thing I have learned since being on the SECr is that some Bama fans live in another reality.

Setting aside his mistake on the tackle, he should be commended for turning the other cheek to the retaliation and not letting the situation worsen and end up in a brawl.
