The Iron Bowl is the name for the rivalry between the Auburn University Tigers and the University of Alabama Crimson Tide in the world of college football.

However, as a turn of events presents, that was not the case. In the case of a call during the game, Justin Thomas openly came in support of the Auburn Tigers.

Justin wrote, “That was a horrible call in Alabama’s favor… feel like I’ve seen more blatant calls missed this year than any other season watching football. (I hate to say it) but auburn got screwed there!”

He termed it as a horrible call. What had actually happened was that the Tiger’s punt returner, Keionte Scott, called for a fair catch. However, he could not field the ball as it went through his hands. The call on the field was in favor of the Alabama Crimson Tide. But when the case was reviewed more, it turned out that Keionte did not touch the ball.

This triggered demands for an overturn of the original call. However, that did not happen and the initial call prevailed. Justin did not agree with the same and opposed it keeping aside his legacy as an alum of the University of Alabama.

He also talked about how there has been an increase in blatant calls missed this year. He compared the same with the previous years of watching college football and notice a sharp increase.
