Moments after Alabama football’s 27-20 Iron Bowl victory, ESPN’s Holly Rowe caught up with Kalen DeBoer and conducted a post-game interview that led to DeBoer getting emotional while speaking on the resilience of his team.

As Rowe was wrapping up the portion of her interview that was with DeBoer, she asked a question about how special his team is right as quarterback Ty Simpson approached them, and the moment became one that fans are using as a vehicle to fully embrace DeBoer.

An emotional DeBoer responded by saying his guys are “unbelievable” and have been competing despite having their backs against the wall.
