An Auburn cheerleader gave an Oklahoma football player quite a welcome when the Tigers hosted the Sooners on Saturday afternoon.
As the Oklahoma roster made their way out to the field at the Jordan-Hare Stadium, the Auburn cheer squad went on with their usual routine.
However, as a member of the acrobatic cheer team was in the middle of a series of flips, he got in the route of the stampede of Sooners and knocked one of the visiting players down with his momentum.
‘One of our cheerleaders just absolutely demolished an Oklahoma with some wild crouching tiger hidden dragon move,’ the user who posted the video quipped.
The cheerleader and one of his teammates were quick to help the football player up. Another Sooners player also helped his teammate up, before they went back to join the team.
‘Back handspring, twisting full, Back handspring, Back handspring, Back handspring, collision,’ another said in the comments.
‘The best defense in a long time at auburn,’ a third added.
A fourth joked: ‘How much did he get paid by Auburn boosters to sneakily take an OU player out? $10,000?’
The 21st-ranked Sooners entered the highly-anticipated showdown, with a 3-1 record. Oklahoma started their season with consecutive wins over Temple, Houston, and Tulane before losing to Tennessee in their last outing.
On the other hand, the 2-2 Tigers scored dominant wins over Alabama A&M and New Mexico and losses to California and Arkansas.
