Twitter reacts to Butch Jones' 'championship of life' comment
When Florida beat LSU Saturday, it eliminated Tennessee from winning the SEC East and a chance against Alabama for the SEC Championship.
Coach Butch Jones tried to not be disappointed over the weekend and went a step further on Monday
“These individuals mean a lot to me personally, and they mean a lot to our football program," said Jones. "When we talked about winning championships. They’re a champion. They’ve won the biggest championship, and that’s the championship of life."
Needless to say, Twitter went nuts in a fun way:
