One loss derailed the season for Penn State, FSU, others, but not DeBoer and Alabama

One of the most impressive feats for a head coach is getting a team to refocus after a loss. It's impressive because it's not easy. Even though today's landscape tells you that one loss - no matter how devastating - can't derail an entire season, the sky sure looks like it's coming down when it inevitably happens.

Some coaches are able to get things fixed in the face of adversity. Others cannot. Kalen DeBoer did, and he deserves credit for it.

Alabama lost its season opener against Florida State on the road. They lost to a hungrier team.
