AUBURN, Ala. – Every time Jeff Holland comes flying off the edge and takes down a quarterback, he’ll get up, put his hands together and take a bow. It looks like something out of Mortal Kombat or one of the Karate Kid movies.

“Students bow to their sensei, and that’s what I do,” Holland said.

The celebration started back in Week 4 at Missouri. Holland told his teammates prior to the game that he was going to bring it out after he made a big play.
