The Alabama defense has only given up two touchdowns in their first three games of the season, but the Tide’s defensive coordinator Kane Wommack continues to be unsatisfied with his unit as a whole.
Wommack has talked about his lack of satisfaction with Alabama’s defense after every game this season with the lack of turnovers they were able to produce in their first two games and their inability to consistently stop the run through three games. He highlighted the Crimson Tide’s run defense on Monday.
Alabama has given up 397 yards on the ground through three contests, and Wommack is aiming for dominance in that department as the Tide enter their bye week ahead of conference play.
“This bye week is really critical to get some things, honed because we need to continue to move in a direction to where we can be a dominant run stopping defense,” Wommack said. “I do not think we are there yet as a team.”
Alabama’s next game isn’t until after their bye week when they kick off conference play with a pivotal matchup against one of their top SEC nemeses in the No. 2 Georgia Bulldogs on Sept. 28 at Bryant-Denny Stadium.
