Alabama has had different players called upon to step up all season.
The coaching staff looked at Dallas Turner, Drew Sanders, Brian Branch, Kool-Aid McKinstry, Ja’Corey Brooks, and Seth McLaughlin to emerge and bring relentless effort in performance. Each one succeeded, especially in critical moments.
Khyree Jackson, a junior college transfer, is next to step up. Alabama suffered injuries to Josh Jobe and Jalyn Armour-Davis at both cornerback spots. Coach Nick Saban has Jobe (foot) as ‘very doubtful’ for the College Football Playoff, and he is unsure about Armour-Davis’ (hip) status at this time.
