Challenges for Alabama
In the Crimson Tide you are getting the best of the best in college football. However, that doesn’t make them unbeatable. The biggest challenge for Bama is stopping Florida’s best-in-the-SEC rushing attack led by Anthony Richardson and quarterback Emory Jones. One area the Crimson Tide can expose the Gators is in the passing game. Jones, the solid runner, is interception-prone. So far this season he’s thrown 2 picks for every touchdown pass he’s made. Good pressure from the Tide defense could make that worse for Florida on Saturday.
Saturday‘s game kicks off at 2:30 PM CT (3:30 PM ET). You can watch this SEC football game on the CBS Network.
