Alabama has been in some tight battles as of late. In each of their two matchups prior to this week, it finished as a one-possession game. Bama beat No. 2 Georgia at home by seven points, before falling to Vanderbilt a week later 40-35.

On Saturday against South Carolina, the Tide got off to a hot start with a 9-play, 75-yard touchdown drive on their first possession to go up 7-0. They would then go up 14-0 in the second quarter with four minutes left to go in the half. A strange sequence of events eventually led to the Gamecocks scoring 12 points and trailing by just two points heading into the half.
