Auburn’s Tray Matthews, Alabama’s Reuben Foster have interesting Twitter exchange

Every year before the Iron Bowl, we are reminded that Alabama LB Reuben Foster has an Auburn tattoo from his days growing up in Auburn.

On Tuesday, SportsCenter tweeted a picture of Foster’s tattoo:

Foster attended Auburn High School and clearly had a soft spot for the Tigers. However, he’s fully on board with the Crimson Tide now and responded to some apparent criticism on Twitter Tuesday night:

Hahaha you mad or nawl cause I have a tattoo of auburn ???….. still wanting to be petty lol.

Foster’s tweet drew a response from Auburn S Tray Matthews:

Shut up Bruh . https://t.co/lhV1FUkULY

Matthews’ Tigers will visit Foster’s Tide on Saturday afternoon. The game will kick off at 2:30 p.m. Central time in Tuscaloosa and can be seen on CBS.
