With seconds left on the clock in the 2014 Sugar Bowl, Alabama was losing Ohio State. Alabama quarterback Blake Sims desperately heaved a ball towards the end zone but saw it intercepted by Ohio State’s Tyvis Powell in his end zone.
Instead of taking a knee, Powell elected to return it, an unnecessarily dangerous choice, especially that late in such an important game. He returned it thirty yards before he was tackled; he retained possession, effectively sealing the win over the Crimson Tide.
Apparently, Powell is against taking a knee in more than one aspect of his life. Powell took to Twitter Wednesday to broadcast his view on marriage.
Somebody asked me "Hey TP you ever getting married?"
My response "I didn't even take a knee at the end of the Sugar Bowl" lol

Starting first with Alabama fans, it seems Tyvis Powell will continue break hearts at OSU.
