- Pick/market: Still have this feeling, if we come out Ns play both haves, we win 48-17… if we come out slow allow LS and the inhuman they have at WR to make play, after play...

- Game breakdown: Alabama is back in Bryant-Denny Stadium on Saturday night (6 p.m.

- LB: Funny how the tune has changed about the offense and defense this early.

- Coaching: Statistical rankings this early in the season are always a little tricky.

- Injury: Well, we are already through 25% of the season, albeit the easiest 3 game stretch we will play.

- Through Alabama's first three 2026 games, the article cites PFF tracking of 31 avoided tackles on 125 rushes. Its running backs have eight runs of at least 15 yards but 14 carries stopped for zero or negative yardage, with Hill, Crowell and Brown each having at least three such stops. The combination shows explosive gains alongside drive-disrupting runs, not consistently efficient rushing. - Alabama's Keelon Russell has a 157.1 passing-efficiency rating, 68.7% completions and 9.2 yards per attempt through three 2026 games; the team has four passing touchdowns. Russell also has seven runs of at least 10 yards. These are the article's early-season production measures, not a quarterback change or a schedule-adjusted forecast. - Alabama's defense has 10 sacks through three 2026 games, including three by Devan Thompkins, while opposing running backs average 3.3 yards per carry. Opponents have converted 30% of third downs, and Alabama has forced seven turnovers. These are the reported three-game results against an uneven early schedule, not proof every defensive matchup is resolved. - Alabama's 2026 defensive risks remain visible in the same three-game sample: opposing quarterbacks average 8.5 yards per attempt with a 133.2 efficiency rating, and opponents have scored touchdowns on seven of eight red-zone trips. Those are current aggregate vulnerabilities, not a reported coverage change or a prediction for South Carolina. - Through three 2026 games, Alabama kicker Conor Talty is 8-for-8 on field goals, with his longest attempt from 45 yards. Alabama has touchbacks on 23 of 28 kickoffs and leads the reported national net-punting table at 48.6 yards on only five punts. The small sample and limited field-goal range qualify the results; they do not establish longer-range certainty.

- Pick/market: Thanks Brett for the write up.

- Pick/market: Margin of victory means nothing to me.

- In Alabama's 2026 South Carolina-week update, Kalen DeBoer expected EJ Crowell to be good to go by the weekend and Daniel Hill to be available during the week. These are coach expectations, not unconditional game clearance or a promised running-back workload. - DeBoer traced free rushers against Florida State to protection identification and communication, including a fourth-down play where Keelon could have redirected the protection. He said Alabama adjusted better once it recognized the pressure plan; the correction involves calls and execution, not an announced offensive-line change.

- Pick/market: I was just messing around really.

- QB/LB: We need to give this coaching staff a little credit for finding players like Brooks,Brown and some of these Portal additions!!

- Pick/market: Alabama's pass defense against Florida State was the "worst" Kane Wommack has seen since joining the program three seasons ago.

- Coaching: Alabama moved to 3-0 (1-0 SEC) following a 50-36 win over Florida State in Bryant-Denny Stadium last week.

- Offense: Would be great to know why.

- OL: KDB was asked about him during Monday's that he is no longer with the team.

- QB: The QB battle we all expected!

- Pick/market: Alabama offensive coordinator Ryan Grubb sent a message Monday to Tide fans that he heard booing the offense early in Saturday's 50-36 win over Florida State.

- QB: WTF I am “rambling” about is this: a slow start is not just “because of bad play calling” or “bad execution”.

- QB/WR: I give a lot of credit to Norvell/their OC, along the recognition that QB Daniels and WR Robinson (and that other really fast WR), have some competency and talent.

- TE: they are all blocking their tails off and really finishing blocks too

- Offense: All we needed to do was get the ball out of the hands of the FSU offense and then run some clock.

- QB/TE: He sacked the qb and te and took them both completely to the ground .

- QB/OL: Shep to Nix is a push both outstanding coaches/recruiters Kap to Klemm big upgrade Sherridan to Ellis a push Nick is great QB coach recuiter & better OC than some give credit Ellis is...

- QB: I actually liked how stubborn we were about sticking to the run game early when they were stuffing it.

- QB/LB: That quarterback has never had and never will have another day like that.

- QB: I actually called out a questionable play call or two, but there were some whiffs on some blocks that were painfully obvious.

- QB/LB: Watching Keelon throw makes me like the girl in Saturday Night Fever who looks at Tony Manero and says, " I just like to see you dance.".

- QB: Been extremely pleased with our wrs so far, whether it be from working back to the qb, getting open, or catching the ball.

- Offense: Great video.

- WR/TE: Ive said it a few times already, but man coverage is so easy to beat these days.

- Pick/market: Also Keelon Russell is 47-1 for Heisman on Kalshi.

- Offense: It’s crazy that I haven’t watched a snap of the reigning champs bc they haven’t played a decent opponent yet.

- Game breakdown: We still have to deal with Sellers and that revamped S Carolina offense first.

- RB: Crazy what happens when you don’t have the extremely slow developing RPO handoff to the RB up the gut on 1st down that we run 11 times a game and has never gained positive...

- Offense: Alabama played better overall after the in-game lightning delay, but arguably the best offensive drive of the game happened right before.

- Pick/market: HIGHLIGHTS: Despite the lightning delays, Alabama rallied from down 21-6 to take down Florida State.

- OL/LB: Alabama starting OL vs.

- LB: FSU receiver Duce Robinson was a handful for Alabama defense.

- Alabama's secondary allowed Ashton Daniels and Florida State 377 passing yards and 10 completions of at least 15 yards in the 50-36 win. The writer treats those explosive passes as a warning about the defense despite Alabama's unbeaten start to the 2026 season. - After three-and-outs on its opening two possessions against Florida State, Alabama's offense scored on its next nine drives, including five straight touchdowns. The article also reports that Keelon Russell had not turned the ball over again since his three-turnover first half against Kentucky the previous week. - Across the Kentucky and Florida State games in 2026, Alabama totaled only 29 rushing yards in the two first halves but 370 in the two second halves. Those are combined two-game splits, not Florida State-only totals; the writer uses the contrast to question the offense's early-game consistency.

- Keelon Russell completed 23 of 30 passes for 320 yards and three touchdowns in Alabama's 50-36 win over Florida State, adding a 57-yard rushing touchdown. The writer says he settled after another slow start, especially following the second lightning delay, with late first-half throws to Lotzeir Brooks and Kaleb Edwards standing out. - Alabama allowed Florida State to convert nine of 15 third downs, including Ashton Daniels' 65-yard run on third-and-14. That contrasted with one conversion allowed in 23 attempts across Alabama's first two games of 2026; the writer flags third-down and explosive-play defense as current concerns. - Alabama rushed 36 times for 247 yards and three touchdowns against Florida State. The writer identifies a clear starting OL group of Jackson Lloyd at LT, William Sanders at LG, Racin Delgatty at center, Michael Carroll at RG and Jayvin James at RT. That continuity matches the staff's stated aim of avoiding last season's heavy in-game rotation. - The article identifies Mal Waldrep Jr. as Alabama's first OL option off the bench. It cites his left-guard work against Kentucky while Carroll was out with a concussion as prior-game evidence of that depth, not a report that Carroll remained unavailable against Florida State or a new medical update.

- QB: Defense went backwards a bit but Norvell has been game planning for this game since last year, and it showed.

- OL: Alabama starting OL in warmups.

- Offense: Alabama opens with two 3-and-outs and FSU's offense is headed back to the field after a 72-yard TD drive.

- QB: Alabama QB Keelon Russell has completed his last 6 passes -- 3 of which went for touchdowns.
