Trooper effortlessly defends Nick Saban from overzealous Ole Miss fan with lethal stiff arm (Video)

When the final seconds ticked off of Ole Miss’ come-from-behind win over Alabama over the weekend, Rebels fans predictably went nuts and stormed the field. This created a chaotic scene at Vaught-Hemingway Stadium.

As the fans flooded the field, Alabama players and coaches – including Nick Saban – tried to get off the field in one piece. Thankfully, Saban had three troopers at his side as one overzealous Rebels fan approached. He was promptly taken to the ground with a quick left hand to the neck.

Watch this:

That was pretty much a perfect stiff arm by this trooper – one that Saban would be proud of.

The fan probably had no idea what hit him as Saban and a few other troopers stepped over him. That’s a job well done.
