Welcome to the Sunday Spin, where we’ll spin Saturday’s Alabama football game into a little different language.
By the numbers
Let’s finish this autopsy, examining the national rankings for the carcass of this once-praised Vanderbilt defense that Alabama manhandled.
It plummeted from 1st to 31st in total defense after allowing 677 yards to the Tide. From 1st to 25th in scoring defense after spotting it 59 points.
The Tide threw for just 181 yards and had 10 incompletions, allowing Vanderbilt to drop just one spot to 2nd in total pass defense.
