Tide linebacker Deontae Lawson went down to a knee after making a tackle for no gain, and he left the field with trainers under each arm. He seemed to be favoring his leg. Six plays later, the UA defense held again and Schmit attempted a 29-yard field goal. This one was good.

Alabama made another big play on 3rd and 10 as Milroe hit Ryan Williams for what initially looked like a touchdown, but officials ruled he stepped out of bounds at the Oklahoma 11.
