Alabama lineman claps back at Travis Kelce Cotton Bowl insult

One of Alabama’s offensive linemen responded to an insult from Travis Kelce about their Cotton Bowl win with a simple and brutal response. Javion Cohen reacted to Kelce’s comments that Alabama didn’t impress anyone with their victory, stating that Kelce’s Cincinnati team didn’t exactly impress either.

Y’all didn’t either tbh. https://t.co/Jh9V4PQpIn

Javion Cohen responds to Travis Kelce’s Cotton Bowl jab

“Let’s be honest though… Bama didn’t impress anyone tonight. They played good enough,” claimed Kelce on Twitter after the game.

Javion Cohen didn’t waste any words in his response to Kelce’s comments about his team. After the NFL star and former Cincinnati tight end said after the game that Alabama didn’t impress as they defeated the Bearcats, Cohen responded quickly.

“Y’all didn’t either [to be honest].”

Cohen was certainly in no mood to hear Kelce downplay his team, especially after their big win. Georgia’s win pushes them into the National Championship game against the winner of the Orange Bowl between Michigan and Georgia. It would give Cohen and his teammates a chance to repeat as national champions, a boast that Kelce might admit is impressive.

Kelce watched the game live and dressed in his school’s gear, donning a Bearcats hat and jacket. The star NFL tight end played for Cincinnati from 2008 through 2012. In his final season with the Bearcats, Kelce was given first-team all conference honors. He went on to be drafted in the third round of the 2013 NFL Draft by the Kansas City Chiefs.

Brian Robinson Jr. makes championship declaration

Alabama running back Brian Robinson Jr. didn’t hold back in his interview following the Crimson Tide’s 27-6 victory against Cincinnati in the Cotton Bowl. The victory sends Alabama to the national championship once again, where it will have the opportunity to win back-to-back titles.

To Robinson, who finished with 204 yards rushing, the Tide’s victory in that game is inevitable.

“Man, because we just know how to fight, know how to fight until the end,” the running back said. “We know how to come together as a team, as a unit. We’re just warriors, we fight to the end. That’s why we’re going to win the natty and repeat.”

The last time Alabama won back-to-back national championships came in 2016 and 2017. The Crimson Tide will face the winner of Georgia and Michigan for a chance at a seventh championship under coach Nick Saban. They claimed the title in 2020 with a 52-24 drubbing of the Ohio State Buckeyes.
