Alabama’s defense has looked like an absolute mess giving up 48 pts and 640 yards last week. They didn't force any turnovers either. That has been the focus of practices this week and I expect them to be hungry here at home tonight.
This game has taken on a different tone as Alabama head coach Nick Saban is not expected to be on the sidelines due to testing positive for COVID-19. Offensive coordinator Steve Sarkisian is expected to take over for Saban but I expect the players to rally and try to make Saban feel better with a big win here tonight.
Alabama is in capable hands with QB Mac Jones behind center. He has more than held his own as the successor to Tua Tagovailoa, and to expect a double digit win here tonight.
