Alabama’s defense has gotten off to a strong start on the road in Nashville today. Offensively, the Tide haven’t been able to get anything going outside of their lone touchdown drive at the end of the first half.
Alabama is set to receive the ball to begin the third quarter. The Tide currently have just 50 rushing yards on the day, while Keelon Russell has thrown for 106 yards through the air.
Crimson Tide offensive coordinator Ryan Grubb has made a handful of questionable calls in the first half as well. Grubb and the Tide may look to establish the run early on in the third quarter, and the unit as a whole will undoubtedly need to play at a much higher level moving forward.
Overall, Alabama’s defense has kept them in the game considering the slow start on the other side of the football. Russell and the rest of the Tide’s offense will now look to settle in throughout the second half.
The second half of Alabama at Vanderbilt is set to begin shortly, as the Tide currently lead the Commodores 7-3.
