Michigan who started the national championship game a year ago well this Alabama defense has taken the ball away as good as anybody during the Nick saving era second down and six and go empty with milro Western Kentucky bringing some pressure it's a designed run and milro into the end zone for the touchdown he had 12 rushing touchdowns last year second most ever by an Alabama quarterback three-man Rush on second down Finley's pass on target this time for a first down kesan Johnson and then Overton came in and finished him off second and seven Finley steps up takes off and Finley slides close to the first down Finley rolling to his right this time one-on-one coverage downfield lot of contact perhaps an uncatchable ball now they throw the flag pass interference Defense number 16 36 yd line and a delayed hand off here to Young down past the 30 and still pushing the pile close to the first down and Chris brazwell is Edge rushers Finley has time fires over the middle another interception it's Sab again his second pick already back to the 40 stays in bounds down the sideline and finally on a play Keon Sab and his Alabama debut shining out of the lights in TT center field safety top of the field DJ Finley trying to hit that underneath route across the middle of the field Sab steps in front a nice job after the interception getting good quality yardage 10 straight until losing in the college football playoff mil row with everybody covered on the run then throws at the last second to law inside the 10 and into the end zone for another Bama touchdown first Alabama TouchDown for Kendrick law was a great special teams player last year milroe taking a shot downfield my goodness wide open Ryan Williams the true freshman taking it to the house 84 yd touchdown well it's going to be out side just going to be a go ball and Nazir Ward who gets a little flat footed safety 21 up in Stout who they raved about his eyes get caught inside no safety help over the top and an easy accurate deep throw down the field by jayen milro by seven to Michigan in the Rose bolt snap over the head of milro ball on the ground and recovered by Western Kentucky third down on the roll out ball bat it back to the quarterback TJ Finley who probably should have just knocked it down I get it you're not expecting it to Ricochet right back to you but Finley's probably got to just knock the ball down there that's exactly right preseason special teams Player of the Year in Conference USA trying to get Western Kentucky on the board but no misses it well wide to the right slightly less than upack correct slightly less what do you mean significantly less another flag down there goes milro pass the 30 milro pass the 40 and finally out of bounds he was going to tonight Defense number [Applause] 21 here's Jam Miller through it PR at the 30 Miller turns on the Jets inside the 10 diving for the End Zone touchdown [Applause] Alabama as he get in as he Dives for the pylon right there the o line hece clearly in elbows up balls across a nice touchdown by Jan Miller the pl clock shut off at 15 Finley running here and gets the first down out to the 38 championship team in 2020 that was a starter Finley dumping it off here on third down and long and Elijah young has a first down to Midfield gain of 12 you could see that going on over there as Finley turned his head towards his coaching staff he dumps it off across the middle for a first down to Hutchinson Finley firing and nice catch in traffic at the 23 yd line first down Western Kentucky Finley with time and nice catch made by Messer with a Defender Sab all over him two for two on fourth down this drive Finley in trouble gets away from the defender lowers the shoulder Dives inside the five close to the first down but appears short Crimson tied back up on the 5 yd line and milro will hand it off here on first down hannes with some room off the right Edge close to a first down second straight good run by this offense and here's Haynes again with great spin Haynes might be gone inside the 40 inside the 30 20 inside the 10 Haynes all the way but a touchdown an 85 yd run for justice Haynes they had a two-play 80 yd drive that was about a minute long earlier now they have a two-play 95 yd drive that's about 30 seconds go for yet another drive here late up five scores milroad of the air this time surveying throwing it and completing it to Ryan Williams and Williams breaks a tackle Williams his second [Music] touchdown and yeah they're up 42 nothing still seeing the ability to run the football and now with jayen milro good job going through his progressions with his eyes in Cut there from Ryan Williams on the Dig and [Music] he does the rest once the ball gets in his hands breaking a tackle and strolling into the end zone slow sputter start early but Jam Miller in the game at running back after Richard young got reps on the last two plays milro at time throws it downfield on the money they can run good routes but the one thing they do lack is is size out there on the perimeter here's quis the tight end [Applause] they go too tight here milroe and coming free is Henderson we just talked about a second ago milro will keep it inside the 10 turns on the Jets diving for the End Zone touchdown Alabama that's his second on the ground and he's got three through the air they pull Tyler Booker get him out in front nice big hole one cut downhill for jayen milro he's got another gear watching him live D Pash that's the one thing again just going back to talking to Nick Sheridan kayin deor Ty Simpson in the game at quarterback very talented sophomore from Martin Tennessee here he is on the run and right on Q throwing a strike to Kobe prentis under five minutes to play here in the third 49 to nothing Alabama quick throw out in space Apprentice again making the defender Miss what a sweet move getting the first down inside the 20 and here's Simpson keeping it pretty good athlete inside the 10 and got tripped off as he Dove for the End Zone but stepped out of play as he stumbled for Simpson Hill runs into an offensive lineman but keeps the feet moving waiting for the signal in touchdown Alabama 55 nothing take a look from the side kept those legs moving through contact staying low tough to tell you see the knee go down where was that ball right when the knee hits the [Applause] ground couple times the last few years that you know maybe that was the goal at some point and as they get the first down here great to have it in the first year of this new playoff arkans saw Texas rivalry and and start some new rivalries with that Oklahoma and some of the they get to the college football playoff can they win the league as Simpsons pass is caught by odm for a first down flag comes down Steph really was talking him up obviously Ryan Williams touchdowns in his first two touches today 17 years old built very differently from Caleb odm but equally talented boy Simpson takes a shot that's under thrown and intercepted back at the 5 yd line by by Kent Robinson penalty marker down though in the back field personal foul rough in the passing with targeting number three on the defense look like his face is up look to me like he hits him with his face mask right in his chest wasn't a crown of the helmet did did you see an indicator there no it didn't really look like Target after riew there is no targeting on number three there is roughing the passer which will be enforced from the pre previous spot pre- snap shifting stumbling but keeping his balance of Simpson and in of the end zone for another Bama score reads the pressure coming off the edge keeps the ball right there in that mesh nice job as a Defender closes on the running back made about kayin deor that there is an emphasis on relationships with the players big hole here for Daniel Hill out to the 49 so Dylan Lan is the quarterback as we mentioned he's back to throw here baseball player played a one game last year threw a couple passes takes off about the 30 yd line before he scoots out of play meanwhile third and three and it's a first down for Kevin Riley as kayin D'Or has a chance to do something in his first game that Nick sain never did at Alabama seven Seasons the most points scored in a game by Nick Saven coach team 66 he did it twice fourth in a yard and Lan going to hand it off and Riley has the first down Lan takes a knee and that's it hi everyone I'm wheels and I'm excited to welcome you all back to the channel for my seventh year covering college football if you're
