Is Alabama football back to playing “Joyless Murderball?”
The University of Alabama started its message to the College Football Playoff Committee last week that it belongs in the 12-team dance. Kalen DeBoer saw his group bring a level of physicality that he has not seen until the Missouri game. Alabama pitched a 34-0 victory on Saban Field at Bryant-Denny Stadium, marking its second shutout of the DeBoer era. The Crimson Tide also gained its first shutout over a Southeastern Conference opponent since its 41-0 victory over Mississippi State in 2020.
