Fans of Alabama football were not pleased with the Crimson Tide’s defensive performance versus Ole Miss, but it has seen improvements since the matchup. Nick Saban saw his group on defense shut Georgia off the scoreboard in the second half and held Tennessee without points in the first and fourth quarter.
Part of the success has come from the play of Byron Young on the defensive line.
Despite seeing Christian Barmore take more initiative and Justin Eboigbe stepping up, Young brought an energy off the bench versus Texas A&M, Georgia and Tennessee that really helped the front.
