Despite entering Saturday’s game as the overwhelming favorite, Alabama needed very second on the clock to secure a narrow win over South Carolina.
The South Carolina Gamecocks gave No. 7 Alabama all it could handle Saturday in Tuscaloosa.
While Alabama entered the matchup of Southeastern Conference foes as the overwhelming favorite, first-year head coach Kalen DeBoer soon realized the odds were not necessarily in his team’s favor.
However, South Carolina quarterback LaNorris Sellers threw a late interception to seal Alabama’s 27-25 win and helped the Crimson Tide avoid a second consecutive defeat to an SEC opponent.
“There’s just so many times — we talk about finding a way to win”, DeBoer told reporters after the hard-fought game.
