Alabama’s Second-Half Surge Shines | Alabama Crimson Tide Football News

Alabama dominated Kentucky 45-17 in their SEC opener, turning a shaky first half into a commanding second half victory. Head coach Kalen DeBoer praised the team’s grit, especially from Daniel Hill (100+ rushing yards) and Jireh Edwards (returning just 19 days after breaking his arm). He emphasized building confidence through early-game reps and highlighted the need for better offensive line play and smarter quarterback decision-making. Defensively, Alabama controlled the game after taking the lead, forcing passes and capitalizing on a key special teams stop. Despite penalties and early struggles, DeBoer credited his players’ resilience under pressure and their commitment to executing their game plan — especially in the second half, where they truly came alive.
