TUSCALOOSA, Ala. -- Minkah Fitzpatrick was starting only the second game of his career when Ole Miss came to town last September. When Chad Kelly threw that crazy touchdown pass -- you know, the one that caromed into the waiting arms of Quincy Adeboyejo -- it was Fitzpatrick who was the guilty party.
Alabama's then-true freshman nickel back wasn't looking for the ball when it bounced off his helmet. He instantly realized what was happening and raced down the field chasing Adeboyejo but was too late. Ole Miss took a two-touchdown lead midway through the third quarter and held on to win 43-37.
