The 12-1 Alabama Crimson Tide may have rolled over most of their opponents this season en route to a College Football Playoff berth, but Tuesday’s Cotton Bowl Media Day saw head coach Nick Saban confronted with something very much not in his usual “process“: an interrupting train horn.

That’s quite the face from Saban. He wasn’t the only one thrown by train horns Tuesday, though; Michigan State quarterback Connor Cook also took note of one, asking if it ended his interview session:

This sparked some discussion about if there’s potentially a surprise train-themed entrant into the playoff:

Barring any further intervention from Purdue and their train, the timetable says the Tide and the Spartans are on track to face off Thursday night at 8 p.m. Eastern.
