WATCH: Alabama strikes first on impressive 37-yard TD to John Metchie III

Alabama gets the first points of the season on an IMPRESSIVE TD pass to John Metchie!

Top-ranked Alabama opens up their 2021 season against No. 14 Miami in the Chick fil-A kickoff. The Crimson Tide strikes first on a drive that was a perfect combination of a passing attack and a ground game.

Bryce Young, in his debut as the starting quarterback, has not been afraid to throw the deep ball and target his speedy, elusive receivers, which have not had an issue getting behind the defense.

The final play of the scoring drive came on a free play, due to a Miami offsides call. It was a 37-yard touchdown pass to John Metchie III, who evaded a few defenders to dive into the end zone.
