Alabama Seizes Control of the SEC West on The Joe Gaither Show
The No. 11 Alabama Crimson Tide football team went into College Station and defeated Texas A&M to take control of the SEC West.
We spend the Monday edition of "The Joe Gaither Show on BamaCentral" discussing the win and what went down at Kyle Field.
Of course, we start the discussion with Texas product and Crimson Tide quarterback Jalen Milroe as he's been a polarizing figure throughout college football this year. How did the redshirt sophomore play? What did he do that was impressive? Is Milroe improving his game week-to-week?
The conversation shifts to Alabama's wide receiving core as Jermaine Burton had a career game with nine receptions, 197 yards and two touchdowns. Burton has taken Alabama fans on a roller coaster ride throughout his two-year career so the program discusses his development and his necessity to this football team.
The Crimson Tide committed 14 penalties in College Station, nine of them came as pre-snap variations. Is there anything Alabama can do over the next several weeks to play better in hostile road environments?
Speaking of penalties, let's discuss Chris Braswell's field goal block and return for a touchdown. Dallas Turner was called for a blindside blocking penalty so we dive into the validity of the penalty and how it impacted the outcome of the game.
Finally, we go around the Southeastern Conference as it was a big weekend for both the East and West division. What do we believe about the conference after six weeks of action?
