Gary Danielson took the brunt of fans’ ire during the Alabama-Arkansas game on CBS, especially when it came to Bryce Young’s injury in the second quarter.

Danielson called out the play that could have caused Young’s injury, and said Danielson himself suffered a rotator cuff injury and that Young being tackled by Drew Sanders near the sideline could have been similar.

After the first quarter, Young had 159 passing yards and was 6-for-10 through the air. Freshmen receivers Kobe Prentince, with 3 catches for 92 yards and a touchdown, and Isaiah Bond, who had a catch for 53 yards, stole the show.

When Young left the game, he was 8-for-15 passing for 196 yards and a touchdown with an interception.

While most fans figured Danielson favored Alabama in his analysis, some also believed he was too harsh in his description of Young’s injury.

Here’s a sampling of the reaction to Danielson:

And Gary Danielson sounded like he was going to personally file a written complaint with @SECOfficiating. I mean… A lightning bolt could hit the hog on the 50 yard line and Gary wouldn’t sound as shocked as he does when Alabama is called for a penalty.

“I don’t know,” Gary Danielson, looking at the Jack Ruby/Lee Harvey Oswald video, probably.

“Let’s hope for college football that Bryce Young can play this season!” -Gary Danielson. Would he say that about ANY other college QB? ? (BY is a great kid & an amazing player and I hope for HIS sake that he’s ok, but college football will be OK even if HE isn’t ??‍♀️

How many times is Gary Danielson going to call Bryce Young’s injury “the biggest play in college football this year”?
We get it Gary, you have a permanent Bama boner.
