LOOK: Mizzou OL Kevin Pendleton responds to Raekwon Davis's apology for punching him
On Saturday night, Alabama DL Raekwon Davis lost his cool, repeatedly punching Mizzou OL Kevin Pendleton after a play.
Somehow, Davis only received a 15-yard penalty for his ridiculous actions, and was allowed to remain in the game.
Davis has since issued an apology to Pendleton and the Tigers on Twitter, and on Sunday morning, Pendleton responded to that apology. As you can see below, Pendleton said it was “all good” with Davis:
✊🏽All good https://t.co/u0b3mM4jqY

Obviously, emotions run high during football games, but there’s no excuse for Davis’s actions.
How he wasn’t ejected from the game is something the SEC office should be asking those officials on Sunday, and a potential suspension for next week’s game shouldn’t be out of the question for the Alabama defender.
Here’s another look at what Davis drew a flag for:

SEC officiating in conjunction with the SEC network are abysmal failures, the SEC needs a total overhaul of it officiating office and a divorce from the disgrace that is ESPNs version of the SEC network.
Tigurrr, hmmm, not sure what made you get your compass adjusted to true north but congrats on whatever it was. Clearly the SEC is a league of popularity and refs are excused for whistling that way. Maybe the most ridiculous decision of the year came IN this game where a Missouri player was ejected without any video proof that he even made helmet to helmet contact (for example the head of the Alabama player didn’t react in any way to the imagined contact). When this is followed by indisputable video proof of an attempt to injure a player who couldn’t protect himself, It leaves the refs and the league office, no choice but to eject and suspend. It stinks and in the context of all favorable spots for AL from beginning to end. Maybe it’s time for the NCAA to send non-conference crews to SEC games. Protecting a team’s flaws will not make them more likely to win a bowl game, write that down.
The Missouri player was ejected by replay…
You’re one crying b!tch… No wonder you see fans say Missouri shouldn’t be in the SEC.
Mr. Davis is a disgrace, very proud of Kevin Pendleton for handling himself so professionally. Mizzou would never tolerate such immature behavior. MIZ PRIDE!
Yes, because allowing players to blatantly attempt to injure an opposing player after a tackle is made is the epitome of high sportsmanship standards… Not excusing this behavior by Davis at all, but it’s best to point a righteous finger when your own players’ hands are squeaky clean.
creative memory, you have a future in science fiction maybe?
You haven’t posted anything but fiction since your dumba$$ joined SDS…
Wouldn’t be tolerated at Mizzou? GTFOH.. Hunger strike U.
I have read where Mizzu fans have called Davis disgraceful and trashy. I will not defend his actions in that they were 100% wrong. I will say that at least he only threw some harmless punches in the heat of the moment. Many Bama fans have rightly called out the dirty pay after the tackle of Riggs. It seems most have missed the dirty line play of Mizzu. Watch what they called “tripping”. The o-lineman diving head first onto the d-lines knee. That disgraceful play was meant to injury. Take your pick. Punch me or put me out of football. Your choice. I wonder if that type of dirty play is what made Davis react?
you are stretching for something that wasn’t there and it’s obvious
It’s clearly there… You don’t want to see it because it’s a negative mark against the $hitty tigers you try to hype up all the time.
I guess you have not seen the video going around showing the rest of the play where right before this happened, Kevin Pendleton threw a right cross to the side of Mac Wilsons head in the same play.
On the other hand, the apology is written in complete terms and Pendleton accepted it gracefully so now that, we the fans, have hooted like baboons over it, and the league doesn’t have more to add, whatever it was is probably what Pendleton said “All good”
