ESPN's Lauren Sisler shares biggest concern about Alabama ahead of SEC title game

Alabama and Georgia will face each other in the SEC Championship Game in Atlanta Saturday afternoon.

But, despite their 24-22 victory over Auburn, the Crimson Tide have several issues they need to address before Saturday’s contest.

ESPN’s Lauren Sisler talked about the uphill battle this team faces going into this game on “The Matt McClearin Show” on WJOX radio out of Birmingham on Tuesday:

One of Sisler’s main concerns is at running back where the Crimson Tide may be down to one running back if Brian Robinson Jr. is unable to play.

“He’s their workhorse, he’s their go-to guy, what are you going to do at that position?” she said.

She also talked about the health and protection of quarterback Bryce Young and what could happen if the Crimson Tide get behind early.

“The pressure they (Auburn) were able to get on Bryce Young is concerning,” she said. “If Alabama gets behind or significantly behind, it’s going to be hard to catch up.”

The Crimson Tide and Bulldogs kick off 4 p.m. ET on Saturday afternoon on CBS.
