There would be no upset or comeback attempt for Tennessee against Alabama.
That’s what happens when you’re facing a 30-point deficit in the fourth
quarter.
Alabama ran all
over the Tennessee
defense and prevented the Volunteers from doing the same in a 49-10 win. And if
we’re taking Alabama’s
offense out of the equation it would still be a win for the Crimson Tide.
Alabama scored off
an interception return and a punt return for its 10th and 11th non-offensive
touchdowns of the season while Tennessee
got just one touchdown and it was thanks to an incredibly short field.
The No. 1 Crimson Tide entered the game with the nation’s
No. 1 rushing defense. Given that the strength of the Tennessee offense is
quarterback Josh Dobbs’ running ability and running backs Alvin Kamara and
Jalen Hurd, the Volunteers needed to crack the Alabama defensive front to have
any shot.
There were no cracks. The No. 9 Volunteers rushed for 30
yards on 27 carries, or 39 yards below Alabama’s
average yards allowed entering the game. If Tennessee
can’t run on Alabama,
is there anyone in the country who can?
NOBODY CAN … ROLL
TIDE ROLL!!!
