Tin horn takedown: Derrick Henry, Alabama run through Charleston Southern

TUSCALOOSA, Ala. -- Nick Saban's "tin horn" rant should have caught his team's attention.

But if there was anyone left in Alabama's locker room that thought Saturday's game against FCS Charleston Southern was going to be a cakewalk, they were dealt a wake-up call when, prior to kickoff, South Carolina lost to The Citadel and Florida needed overtime to survive Florida Atlantic.

Instead, the No. 2-ranked Crimson Tide took care of business at home against the Bucs, scoring on their first eight drives to win going away, 56-6.

Derrick Henry scored the first touchdown of the afternoon, running 17 yards to pay dirt.
