Crimson Tide OL, Alabama fans roast Tom Brokaw on Twitter

As you can imagine, the Alabama community is not taking kindly to Tom Brokaw’s remarks during his Ole Miss commencement speech.

Monday afternoon, Crimson Tide OL Alphonse Taylor went on a Brokaw-related Twitter rant. Since Brokaw’s zingers were a hot topic on The Paul Finebaum Show, carried by the SEC Network, Taylor directed his tweets at the show and the channel.

@UofAlabama That clueless rube @tombrokaw may want to do a little research next time. @olemiss is the nation's Fallback School.

The University of Alabama responded to Brokaw earlier Monday.

Now all this story needs is a Lane Kiffin tweet.
