The Tide took control in the 2nd half and saw a good performance from QB Jalen Milroe. Following the game, Saban spoke to reporters to recap the win.
For starters, Saban provided an update on Malachi Moore and James Burnip. Moore suffered a twisted ankle while Burnip pulled a muscle in his leg.
Saban said Malachi Moore has “a twisted ankle and James Burnip has “a pulled muscle in his leg.”
He said Darrian Dalcourt is dealing with a shoulder injury, which led to Jaeden Roberts starting today.
