North Alabama vs SE Missouri Highlights | College Football Week 1 | 2024 FCS Football

in Montgomery Alabama we welcome you tons of unique formations from North Alabama today they might run a different formation on every trips pushed all the way out to the near sideline nobody on that Far Side they go right back to juice Allen North Alabama sends for deloren flush right surveys the field tried to squeeze it in the window North Alabama saying incomplete back to the ground game bottled up no r on that Far Side North Alabama sends pressure deloren throws it's caught and he was the conference player of the year last year so maybe shorten the secondary packs to delor to the seimo offense already in the Red Zone epton Jr upended 10th play of the drive and delord is sandwiched in the back field by Brown and EP Jr in trouble gets it off to Eon just in the nick of time but now he's comes in motion deloren looks that way but checks it down to epton Jr Cuts has the first [Applause] down deloren quick hitter here's Cedro and he's in touchdown SEO and it's the transfer [Music] from DC Pippen knocks in the extra point so it's trying to find their foot putting offensively Patu quarterback keeper a dual threat for sure takes that one and Smith on the field trying to establish that running game and zimo run defense Allen in motion looks that way throws wide open it's caught Kobe Warden turns it up field ball comes out but they ruled the knee down up there right over the middle first down Northern Alabama that's the best run of the night for about this formation they call this Gator 3 by3 it's a quarterback keeper Simo not fooled so you got three wide receivers on the far and they keep shifting around like that third and three quick hitter right back to Warden and he moves the chains again hu set to throw on a first and 10 and it's intercepted right off the hands of Tanaka Landing right in your lap no better feeling take a shot theoren just an overthrow [Applause] there pton Brown his first carry that he could four four blown up not going to get the Brandon napton Jr Logan Collier back there calls for the fair catch at the 15 I really like them this year I think they got quite a squad Hari Patu throwing on first down completed pass to Dakota hu in trouble steps up gets back to the original line of pressure coming Patu gets rid of it it's caught but defended well again Dakota Warfield fourth and one Patu under Center flips it to Allen has the first down spins his way inside the five Allen looking for a hole lowers his shoulder bulldozes in touchdown North [Applause] Alabama even on special teams they'll keep you guessing in a pce off conditioning might not be all the way back and Allen did it all on that drive a broken play there delant just fell forward for a gain of one swing that momentum back in the way of Simo they're going to try some trickery the reverse to Downing in north Alabama not full theen under pressure down he goes defend something keep them on their heels they go to the ground game this is AJ Phillips takes a hard hit there Patu good protection didn't pull the trigger though faned out right tiptoes knocking that ball out deloren throws quickly on first down Jack Clin beard zimo going with a little uptempo here and bred epton the transfer for deloren sends it to epton Jr three straight shed blocks deloren in trouble plenty of room after the catch though you can settle into that but when you change it up that's tougher deloren did well to get it away there Dorian Anderson breaks it's happening with Tempo Payton Brown the true freshman he is not delore and steps up room to run Cuts back at the 10 big hit at the seven football right and now here they are in a college game on espm at 7 o00 play trying to punch it in with a backup quarterback Hansley Under Pressure loses the football no whistle that ball is loose up Alabama ball it's still a one-point lead Pat taking a deep shot incomplete but a flag fly from their offense they've given North Alabama a great opportunity here can they convert so far so good the 30 yd line quarterback keeper Patu read at the whole way slides and takes a big hit and that's the E quarterbacks on the field Patu with TJ Smith Patu keeps it himself untouched into the end zone touchdown that is a standard extra point so if you don't have delor the rest of the way Hensley's got to start to show something incomplete and it should have been it play I'm not sure what he's thinking on that [Music] Play Another Broken play by Simo crowding that line of scrimmage third and two left lower to should design screen Brown turns up field doesn't go down until inside back Carter Hensley completes the pass turning up field Hensley good protection steps up right on the money Doran Anderson Brown gets the carry powers in touchdown Simo CS at 11pl 51 yd Drive pressure coming in trouble gets rid of it right through the hands of Danny Joiner back at the first down marker they run it with juice Allen good to see him with the ball in his hands again second and 12 play action Hensley steps up just a little short there starting quarterback to Lauren pressure coming on a third and 12 Hensley throws it out of bounds trying to go to Anderson again and careful what you wish for that was turned out to be a good thing third and eight putu in trouble scrambles out of it has the first down all right putu showing that dual threat as his scrambling and running ability looks great [Music] Kobe Warden he's been the bubble screen guy tonight rips that off for a gain of Patu this time can't escape lost the football as well Carrow shot starting from his own 6yd line we go to Payton Brown who rumbles forward gain of seven come right here again pressure comes but it doesn't stop the one yd gain to move the chains Hensley clean pocket fires over the middle it's caught gain of eight not one day in practice during the fall are you on the field playing 50 snaps they going to have to endure here big hit on a third and three third down here the pat two empty set the transfer from Stanford surveys rolls right nowhere to go with it and he's flushed out of bounds we've got a competitive game two-point lead for North Alabama Simo not going down without a fight their defense Rocky has kept then maybe you come back to the play action help Carter Hensley out Hensley pump fake now throws wide open beautiful ball Doran Anderson he's been the top Target playing a slower game grinded out style so the tempo you would think is favoring the RedHawks but at some point you need some offensive production this will help positive yardage [Applause] again finally some room to run Brandon epon burst through the hole that's a gain of 11 third and four they go to the Freshman Payton Brown and he picks up the first down again quickly turning in Mister right back to Brown and he rumbles forward for another first down when you need a first down 22 that box is going to open up some things in the pass game for Hensley they're sticking with brown why not breaks a tackle stays on his feet dives into the end zone [Applause] the true fresh the inside run you know it's coming but can you stop it seima says we don't think you can and pton brown an early in rool Le played high school and zimo converts count it for two and the Red Hawks 20 Em and Memphis I think are the two leading candidates in my opinion big run here at the end of the third quarter exactly what North Alabama stop the run at this point but comes down to your defense right now getting that ball back and Patu and North Alabama offensively might know that so that on the shoulders number one the quarterback P two goes under center for the second time tonight hands off to juice Allen needed two got three so firstep Dennis Moody into the game to relieve Allen gets the carry Moody sheds a tackler Falls forward for a solid gain of seven on first box and run the ball quick snap here send it outside to Kobe Warden trying to turn that corner and another first down for North Alabama really F try to go quick fourth and half a yard they snap it quickly blowing up in the back field Bryce Norman Jared P or in the running game they are getting a really nice push now can their offense capitalize and make this a two-score game if you get a field goal on this drive you're up by nine quarterback play action little trickery there everyone thought they were going has not they can stop Payton Brown in this Simo rush they do there no quarterback keeper Carter Hensley everybody in the stadium was full Hensley all the way to the this Simo offense but they're leading on the scoreboard and they're trying to make this a two touchdown lead Brown bottled up that time Hensley goes to Brown instead he's up ended they go to Brown trying to muscle it in and he does wow what a night for the true freshman three touchdowns in his Collegiate debut from a great one is the great one the great one's their legs don't stop on contact reic one of the best defensive player bang meets him in the hole and the legs keep driving through the p is on for the two-point try confusion here epton trying to turn the corner not going to get there seems h two over the middle hard hit balls out SEO says they have it and they do ball aggressively ripping pulling that thing away good things happen but what an incredible comeback this is for Simo they were down 157 in this great determination shown by Simo now trying to throw the knockout punch here's Brandon epton turning the corner inside the [Applause] five make it 26 unanswered for Simo untouched Carter Hensley [Music] side and there's Paxton delen liking what he's seeing see everybody sing out to stop that interior run pull that thing head to the outside great play call [Applause] Great and it's intercepted four turnovers on the n for North Alabama Carter Hensley and the offense has stepped up in a big way 26 unanswered they have made a statement in this second half you're going to get some great matchups I mean you're going to get Oregon Ohio State in October right that's not usually like an early season game maybe but with some of this conference real MLB keeps expanding the playoff as well college football they're on to something here yeah taking a page out of a lot of playbooks it's funny at the FCS like that would never happen this year moving forward with the 12 team playoff up the slack and on the other side it's human nature but North Alabama you've got to the Red Hawks finish this game until middle of January middle of January yeah it's going to be I mean such a fun ride and and that's a new wrinkle so a lot of new cool stuff never know what's going to happen this year
