Against Florida State, Alabama football’s offense struggled to finish crucial drives in enemy territory, failing on three fourth-down attempts and only scoring on three of seven drives that went past the 50-yard line.

One Alabama player who had a great performance despite the loss was Germie Bernard. He finished the game with eight receptions for 146 yards, averaging 18.3 yards a catch.

On Tuesday, Bernard shared his perspective on why Alabama’s offense faltered on Florida State’s half of the field and what needs to be done to fix the issue.
