Ty Simpson has supreme confidence in his wide receivers, and that led to a critical throw-and-catch to Germie Bernard in the fourth quarter.
Germie Bernard had what could have been a critical drop in the third quarter of Alabama's comeback 34-24 win over Oklahoma in Friday night's College Football Playoff opener.
With Alabama leading 24-17, it faced a 3rd-and-2 from its own 46-yard line as it looked to take a commanding two-possession lead. Ty Simpson threw the ball to Bernard down the field, and the senior WR lost the ball in the lights and watched it go straight through his hands.
