Many are now heralding the triumphant return of Texas while simultaneously sounding the death knell for Alabama. But isn&#8217;t that jumping the gun? Both teams showcased different levels of prowess, and while Texas had its moments of brilliance, Alabama&#8217;s performance left many perplexed.
It&#8217;s hard to fathom how a team with Nick Saban at the helm, after ample spring practice, could have a display as disjointed as the Crimson Tide did. Alabama&#8217;s inefficiencies were glaring, especially with Jalen Milroe and the offense&#8217;s lackluster showing for the better part of three quarters. The recurrence of issues like 85 yards in penalties, multiple drop passes, and an absent power running game added to the Tide&#8217;s woes.
Milroe, though talented, had moments of sheer inconsistency. A glaring example was a missed pass on a pivotal wheel route that could have changed the game&#8217;s complexion.
Conversely, Texas did not look invincible, but they did capitalize on their moments. The Longhorns, driven by Quinn Ewers, managed to churn out 21 points from just 11 plays in the critical fourth quarter. Ewers&#8217; ability to throw downfield, combined with Texas&#8217;s aggressive play, took the game away from Alabama &#8211; a situation that Tide fans aren&#8217;t used to seeing.
So, where does that leave both teams?
Texas might have gained momentum, but it&#8217;s too early to crown them. As for Alabama, they certainly aren&#8217;t down for the count, but questions loom large, especially regarding their quarterback position. The contrast in QB performances was evident, with Texas getting elite execution and Alabama faltering.
All eyes will be on Saban and his team as we await to see if there will be any changes in their quarterback roster. One thing&#8217;s for sure, Saturday&#8217;s clash was a testament to the unpredictable, thrilling nature of college football, and fans wouldn&#8217;t have it any other way.
