BATON ROUGE, La. — Alabama’s Crimson Tide are now college football’s Golden State Warriors.
Everyone is just waiting for the postseason to see if anyone can topple Alabama. On one level, that is incredibly boring, but the excitement and joy Alabama brings to the field often outweighs the inevitability of its triumphs.
They are so dominant that their best player, quarterback Tua Tagovailoa, usually sits out the fourth quarter, much as Stephen Curry, the Warriors otherworldly star, frequently does.
And, like Curry, seemingly in every game Tagovailoa has at least one moment when he reminds the world how much better he and his team are than everyone else.
