Alabama bounced from SEC Tournament following 9-2 loss to Vanderbilt

Alabama’s SEC Tournament run ends with a 9-2 loss to Vanderbilt on Friday night.

After a solid run in the 2023 SEC Tournament, the Alabama baseball team will head back to Tuscaloosa licking its chops following a 9-2 loss to the Vanderbilt Commodores on Friday night from the Hoover Met in Hoover, Alabama.

Alabama’s pitching staff took a beating early on surrendering five runs in the first inning. Alabama would cut the deficit to three in the third inning with a two-run home run from Colby Shelton, but would not cross home plate again in the contest.

Alabama will now head home and wait for its final verdict for the NCAA Tournament, where it will likely host a regional.

FINAL: Alabama responds after loss with a dominating 101-44 win over Vanderbilt

Alabama basketball bounces back in a big way against Vanderbilt defeating the Commodores 101-44.

If anyone was doubting this Alabama men’s basketball team following the loss this past Saturday to Oklahoma, those thoughts have quickly dissipated following the Tide’s nearly 60-point win over Vanderbilt on Tuesday night inside Coleman Coliseum.

Quotes from Nick Saban’s postgame press conference following Alabama’s 55-3 win over Vanderbilt

The best quotes from Nick Saban’s press conference following Alabama’s 55-3 win over Vanderbilt.

Alabama easily handled the Vanderbilt Commodores on Saturday night to open up SEC play here in the 2022 season. The Crimson Tide dominated from start to finish as they beat the Dores 55-3 inside Bryant-Denny Stadium.

Crimson Tide quarterback [autotag]Bryce Young[/autotag] carved up the Vandy defense to the tune of 385 yards passing and four touchdowns. Ja’Corey Brooks had a career day with six receptions for 117 yards and two touchdowns. [autotag]Will Anderson[/autotag] led the Tide’s impressive defensive effort with three tackles for loss and 2.5 sacks.

Following Alabama’s dominating win, head coach [autotag]Nick Saban[/autotag] stepped to the podium to deliver his thoughts on the Crimson Tide’s Week 4 performance.

INJURY UPDATE: Alabama TE Cameron Latu returns after scare

Alabama tight end Cameron Latu seems to be good after an injury scare in the second quarter against Vanderbilt.

In the second quarter, Alabama quarterback [autotag]Bryce Young[/autotag] tried to connect with tight end [autotag]Cameron Latu[/autotag] on fourth down but the pass fell to the ground. Latu also went to the ground holding his right knee.

Fortunately for Latu and the Tide, the injury seems to be insignificant as the talented senior returned to the field on the following possession.

If the Tide were to lose Latu it would be a big blow to the Alabama offense. The tight end room is very young and inexperienced behind Cameron. Young and Latu also have great chemistry on the field and that is something that is hard to replace.

Five bold predictions for Alabama-Vanderbilt

Five bold predictions for Alabama vs. Vanderbilt.

In less than two hours [autotag]Nick Saban[/autotag] and the Alabama football team will take the field at Bryant-Denny Stadium for its first SEC matchup of the 2022 season against the Vanderbilt Commodores.

The Crimson Tide is looking to create an identity for this season as the first few weeks have consisted of nothing but inconsistency.

[autotag]Bryce Young[/autotag] and the Alabama offense are searching for a more consistent passing game as well as a more punishing and physical ground game. Tonight against Vanderbilt would be a great opportunity to find a rhythm on offense.

Defensively, Alabama will have its hands full with a Vandy offense that has two talented quarterbacks in AJ Swann and Mike Wright. The top playmaker for the Commodores is wide receiver Will Sheppard who leads the SEC in catches, yards, and touchdowns entering Week 4.

With kickoff just around the corner, here are five bold predictions for Alabama versus Vandy.

Live stream, injury report, and broadcast information for Alabama’s Week 4 matchup with Vanderbilt.

The 2022 SEC opener has arrived for [autotag]Nick Saban[/autotag] and the Alabama football team. Tonight the Crimson Tide will host the 3-1 Vanderbilt Commodores inside Bryant-Denny Stadium in the Week 4 matchup.

Alabama fans have been a little skeptical over this year’s team for its lack of consistency early on. Today’s matchup with Vanderbilt will be a good opportunity for the Tide to claim its identity here in the 2022 season.

[autotag]Bryce Young[/autotag] and the Alabama offense should have plenty of chances to make plays against the Vandy defense that is allowing over 28 points per game.

Defensively for Alabama, it will be an interesting matchup as the Commodores provide a pair of quarterbacks that are more than capable and the Crimson Tide have yet to allow a passing touchdown on the season.

Here is all the gameday information you need to watch the Crimson Tide in Week 4.

Roll Tide Wire staff predictions for Alabama vs. Vanderbilt

The staff at Roll Tide Wire dishes out their predictions for Alabama’s Week 4 matchup with Vanderbilt.

Alabama is set to open its slate of SEC games this weekend when the Vanderbilt Commodores travel to Tuscaloosa. Nick Saban has been preaching consistency in performance all week long and the seven-time national championship-winning head coach is hoping for a complete game against the Commodores on Saturday night.

Vandy head coach Clark Lea is in his second season in Nashville and it seems like he has the program heading in the right direction. This Vandy team is off to a great start this season posting a 3-1 record entering Saturday night’s contest. But to say Alabama will be their toughest test yet is an understatement.

It will be interesting to see if the Crimson Tide can continue to show improvements this week as the schedule begins to toughen up over the next month.

Here are the staff predictions from Roll Tide Wire.

Staff predicts the game

Alabama (-40.5) Record ATS Winner Record Overall
AJ Spurr Alabama 2-1 Alabama 3-0
Stacey Blackwood Alabama 2-1 Alabama 3-0
Sam Murphy Vandy 1-2 Alabama 3-0
Brody Smoot Alabama 2-1 Alabama 3-0

AJ Spurr

This game won’t end in a shutout, as the 2017 contest did on the road at Vanderbilt. However, Alabama plays just as dominant. The Commodores’ ability to move the ball via the ground game will be a true test for the Crimson Tide. If Vanderbilt can get a few chunk plays, they have a solid shot at reaching the end zone at least once to put points on the board.

Stacey Blackwood

It is time for the 2022 Alabama football team to start to impose its will on the opposing team. The SEC opener against Vanderbilt seems like the perfect place to start. Although Clark Lea seems to be turning Vandy in the right direction, this Crimson Tide team is just too strong in all three phases. Alabama has its way with the Commodores in this one.

Sam Murphy

Vanderbilt enters the contest on a 21-game SEC losing streak, while the Tide are the reigning Champs. Vanderbilt is vastly improved from years prior, however, Nick Saban’s team is far more talented. I think Alabama’s offense will start clicking again, but it will be fun to see how the defense holds up.

Alabama 52, Vandy 17

Brody Smoot

Alabama has an opportunity to make a statement in its first conference game of the season. I think that Alabama will come out clicking on all cylinders. Vanderbilt is better than years past. However, they don’t have enough firepower on offense to remain in the game. The Commodores won’t be able to neutralize the Tide’s pass rush enough to create any type of momentum. I like Alabama big in this one.
