Carver grad Mekhi Brown taken out after punching Georgia player, tussle on sideline | Columbus Ledger-Enquirer

Carver High School graduate and University of Alabama linebacker Mekhi Brown was taken out of the College Football Championship game late in the 3rd quarter after receiving a penalty for unsportsmanlike conduct.

Brown lashed out at a UGA player, punching him squarely in the head before being pushed away by a teammate. The Crimson Tide ate a 15 yard penalty for the stunt, and cameras captured Alabama head coach Nick Saban berating Brown on the sideline.
