E56 BH Bama win over Georgia Upon Further Review Highs Lows Good Bad and Ugly In this episode, we will look at to the Bama win over Georgia again in our Upon Further review and get into the ends and outs of the huge Bama road win at GA. Any win on the road in the SEC is a great win and winning at GA is glorious! Alabama (#17) secured a hard-fought 24-21 victory over #5 Georgia snapping Georgia's 33-game home winning streak dating back to 2019. The Crimson Tide started strong, scoring all 24 of their points in the first half. Alabama quarterback Ty Simpson delivered a strong performance, completing 24 of 38 passes for 276 yards and two touchdowns, while also adding a rushing touchdown. In the second half, Alabama's defense stifled Georgia, holding them scoreless after halftime. A pivotal play occurred in the fourth quarter when Alabama defensive lineman LT Overton stuffed Georgia running back Cash Jones on a fourth-and-1 near the goal line, preventing a potential game-tying or go-ahead score. Alabama's offense proved efficient on third down, converting 12 of 19 attempts, while Georgia managed only two conversions on eight tries. Alabama's resilience, particularly after a season-opening loss to Florida State, impressed observers, marking the biggest win of the Kalen DeBoer era and sparking celebration among fans. Alabama maintained possession for the final 3 minutes, 19 seconds, ultimately securing the victory. Area of Performance Grade Notes Overall A- A significant road win against a top-5 opponent, ending Georgia's impressive home winning streak. Demonstrated resilience after a Week 1 loss to Florida State. Secured a crucial SEC victory and potentially boosted College Football Playoff odds. Offense B+ Defense B Special Teams B- Missed makeable 43 yd FG in 2nd half badly. The Good Ty Simpson Bama 1st Half offense Two great clock-eating drives at the beginning of the game to put up 14 points Great end of 1st half 2-minute drive to score TD at end of half to go up 24-14. Great end of game drive to run out the clock Passing Game Bama 3rd down defense Bama 3rd down offense No Turnovers Few penalties 4 for 16 for Bama vs 6 for 68 for GA – and fewer than GA Didn’t give up on the run and made key runs at end of game to run out the clock 50/50 run pass mix on offense The Bad Bama run game – not very effective Bama run defense – gave up 227 yds rushing Too many shot pass plays on offense in second half when short and intermediate passing game was effective all game long. Bama is at its best when it uses the short and intermediate passing game to keep the chains moving and when it uses a mix of runs and the pass. The Ugly Blown coverage on Colbie Young TD pass in 1st half with bama up 14-0 – way too aggressive and left Domani Jackson on an island. Losing containment on defense too much – on key 4th and one, no containment on that play. Just luck LT Overton burst through the line and made shoe-string tackle to keep Jones from getting the first down and probably scoring Gave up big play on reverse that led to GA TD – never established containment on the play Missed 43 yd FG badly in 3rd Quarter when points could have helped Due to poor defensive alignments and schemes and failure to set the edge, Bama gives up too many long, explosive plays in both the run game and passing game. Defense still giving up too many explosive plays due to schemes, misalignments, not setting the edge for containment, and Jackson getting beat deep on the long TD pass. Also got beat deep on another long pass, but GA player dropped a sure TD. It's the second time in four games that Alabama has allowed over 200 yards on the ground. For the season, the Crimson Tide now ranks 75th in the country in rushing yards allowed per game at a jarring 160.5 yards on average.
