LEXINGTON, Ky. -- Nick Saban is all business when it comes to any "rat poison" infecting his Alabama football team, especially when he senses a trap game on the horizon.
His No. 8 Crimson Tide didn't take the bait Saturday in a dominant 49-21 road win over Kentucky, clinching an SEC championship game appearance and seeing quarterback Jalen Milroe take his game to another level. He became the first Alabama quarterback in history to pass for three touchdowns and rush for three touchdowns in a game.
"It's exciting, because you give him time and he's going to work his magic," Alabama offensive guard Tyler Booker said of Milroe, who has accounted for 10 touchdowns in his past two games.
