It only took a half for Alabama to expose Vanderbilt as an SEC pretender

The Vanderbilt hype was fun for a week, wasn’t it?
Alabama is taking Saturday personal.
The Crimson Tide clearly entered the game against the Commodores to make a statement. And they certainly did that in the first half.
Alabama is up 31-0, and the Tide are absolutely destroying the Commodores. Talking about playing Alabama tough is completely different than stepping foot on the field with the Tide.
Last Saturday night, Vanderbilt DL Nifae Lealao gave the Tide some ammunition.

And that hasn’t gone well at all.
Alabama has racked up 249 rushing yards and four rushing TDs. RB Damien Harris already has over 100 yards rushing and two TDs. Bo Scarbrough has added two TDs, too.
Meanwhile, Vanderbilt has 49 total yards and two turnovers.
It’s a flat-out massacre.
Here’s part of the carnage report at halftime:
HE. IS. GONE.

If Najee Harris is running right at you, getting out of the way isn’t the worst idea. pic.twitter.com/0XnC1D5Am6
