Undisciplined mistakes doom Alabama versus Tennessee Volunteers

Tennessee fans have seen 15 years of frustration end at Neyland Stadium.

The Volunteers ended the streak with a 52-49 victory over the Crimson Tide.

Alabama doomed itself with undisciplined mistakes in a rivalry game. Nick Saban saw his team commit 17 penalties for a loss of 130 yards, which was the most penalties the Tide allowed in school history. Alabama’s secondary gave up a lot of big plays to Tennessee as Hendon Hooker tossed five touchdown passes to wide receiver Jalin Hyatt. The Tide had 15 penalties against Texas, but it found a way to win the game.
