Alabama survived a nailbiter in Austin, Texas Saturday. The Crimson Tide escape the Lone Star State with a 2-0 record off the right foot of kicker Will Reichard, who nailed a 33-yard, go-ahead field goal with under 20 seconds remaining. Alabama took the win, 20-19.
It wasn’t pretty, but the Crimson Tide got it done. Following the final play, Alabama players flashed the ‘Horns Down’ sign towards Texas players on the field.

The Crimson Tide were sloppy all afternoon on a field registering above 110 degrees on the index. Alabama receivers couldn’t catch a pass, there were penalties galore and the Tide couldn’t seem to sustain a drive heading into the fourth quarter.
But all that matters is the final score. Bryce Young and the Alabama offense were able to get it done when it counted.
