02:50 AM ET 11.30 | There are times when football and the violence attributed to it spill over outside the game. But sometimes that violence isn't so much brutal as it is just crude, as was the case for one infamous Alabama Crimson Tide fan whose video after last year's BCS championship game has landed him in the big house for the next two years. Brian Downing was sentenced to two years in prison after pleading guilty to two counts of obscenity for sexual taunting last month. It took until yesterday for prosecutors to come up with a proper sentence, and it appears that if you're planning on rubbing your genitals on someone's face you can expect a pretty hefty sentence.
