Watch: Nick Saban screams at Bama players for postgame 'Horns Down' gesture

By Adam Gretz | Last updated 9/10/22

Earlier this week, Alabama head coach found out that the "Horns Down" gesture will now be considered a personal-foul penalty in games against Texas.

None of his players did it during the Crimson Tide's 20-19 win over the Longhorns, but a handful of players could be seen making the gesture as the clock struck zero on the final incomplete pass.

Saban was not having it.

While that reaction was probably Saban doing Saban things and trying to rule his sidelines with an iron first, he was probably angrier that his top-ranked team barely sneaked away with a win in which it was a 20-point favorite.

Saban never seems happy even after convincing wins. This win was anything but convincing.
