Mark Ingram reps Alabama Football, antagonizes Wisconsin fans on Big Noon Kickoff

Former Alabama Football Heisman Trophy winning running back and 11-year NFL veteran Mark Ingram has not let his job as an analyst on FOX impact his status as “King Gump” of the Tide’s fanbase.

Alabama fans have often complained about alumni like Greg McElroy trying too hard to be impartial to the point of being overly negative about the Crimson Tide. They’ve never had to worry about that with Ingram, as everywhere he goes, he makes his allegiances known.

On set in Madison for Big Noon Kickoff ahead of Alabama’s matchup with Wisconsin, Mark Ingram displayed custom Alabama Air-Force One sneakers with his feet propped up on he desk.

Ingram didn’t stop there, launching into a fired up rant directed at the crowd of Wisconsin fans gathered around the set for FOX’s pre-game show. Ingram grabbed the Tide helmet and put it on, smacking it and getting fired up with a myriad of “Roll Tide’s” sprinkled in.

Mark Ingram was part of Nick Saban’s 2008 recruiting class that changed it all for the Crimson Tide, and became the first player in program history to win the Heisman Trophy in 2009. Ingram has long been a great ambassador for the Alabama program, and continues to be a prominent media personality whose allegiance to his school has not impacted his status.
