Jordan Battle has Alabama Twitter exploding after early INT

Twitter explodes after Jordan Battle picks off Will Howard in the Sugar Bowl.

The Allstate Sugar Bowl is underway in New Orleans and the Alabama defense has already made a big play for the Crimson Tide.

On Kansas State’s opening possession, the Wildcats moved the ball to around midfield before senior safety Jordan Battle picked off Will Howard when he attempted to hit star running Deuce Vaughn on a wheel route.

The interception was Battle’s first of his senior season and it couldn’t have come at a better time.

Unfortunately, Bryce Young and the Alabama offense could not take advantage of the turnover and quickly went three and out.

Following Battle’s interception, Twitter quickly exploded.

The Georgia Bulldog transfer is proving to be a vital piece of the Alabama offense here in 2022 after being criminally underused while in Athens.

Bryce has started off the contest on fire connecting on 8 of his 10 passes for 80 yards. Burton’s touchdown reception was his second catch of the contest.

Alabama’s defense has stimied the Utah State Aggie offense early on while the Crimson Tide offense has scored on each of its first two possessions of the game.

Due to the blistering cold weather that Indy welcomed the Crimson Tide with, Alabama head coach Nick Saban went deep into his closet to find just the right jacket for the occasion.

Wake up, it’s game day!

It’s not just any other game day, but it’s a rivalry Saturday in Tuscaloosa as Tennessee comes to town for another edition of The Third Saturday in October.

Since Nick Saban took over in 2007, Alabama has never lost to Tennessee. Currently sitting at 14 in a row, there has not been a longer win streak in the all-time series. The Vols have capped out at seven, stretching from 1995-2001.

On the field today, quarterback Hendon Hooker is expected to go. He suffered a late ankle injury against Ole Miss and was in doubt throughout the entire week. If they have any chance of winning today, Hooker will have to play at an elite level.

As usual, Alabama Twitter was on fire, preparing for the game. Don’t tell anybody the rivalry with Tennessee is dead because the gumps will have something to say about it.
