After changes both in personnel and a new position coach, did the Alabama secondary perform markedly better than last year?
The simple answer is it’s too soon to tell.
What was gleaned from Saturday’s performance against Wisconsin, though, was that the defense’s numbers against the pass improved in the second half, the unit created a positive turnover ratio, and there is still plenty of room for improvement, including eliminating the pass interference penalties.
Wisconsin quarterback Joel Stave started the game hot, completing 14 of 16 passes for 149 yards and a touchdown, averaging nearly 9.3 yards per attempt in the first half.
