To the victors (valiant?) go the spoils.
And for the Michigan Wolverines, that meant taking a quick chance to troll the Alabama Crimson Tide after a 27-20 overtime victory in the Rose Bowl.
The victory sent the Wolverines to their first national title game since 1997 and ensured that an SEC team would not win a national title for the first time since Clemson in 2018.
So, naturally, Michigan wideout Roman Wilson did what college kids do these days when they want to celebrate/troll. He took to TikTok.

“I don’t give p— about nothin’ but the Tide!,” Wilson yelled into the camera.
“Blitz, Bama, Blitz!” yelled a teammate.
The TikTok was a recreation of an earlier video from comedian Druski that appears to mock Alabama’s fans – uh – southern sensibilities…yeah, we’ll go with that.

As it turns out, Wilson is extremely active on the social media platform. He has nearly 137,000 followers and over 3.5 million likes on his videos.
On3 Sports estimates his NIL value at nearly $500,000. Which places him 104th among all college football players.
The senior from Hawaii isn’t too shabby on the field, either. Wilson caught four passes for 73 yards and a key touchdown with 1:34 remaining in the fourth quarter to tie the game.
That gives him 45 receptions for 735 yards and 12 touchdowns on the season. Each of those numbers lead the College Football Playoff final-bound Wolverines.
