Alabama Crimson Tide is riding on its most critical times since Nick Saban’s departure. Head coach Kalen DeBoer knows his team is not looking like itself and its season is in jeopardy. Alabama barely prevailed over South Carolina, just one week after the historic collapse to the Vanderbilt Commodores. After the nailbiting triumph, DeBoer addressed Crimson Tide QB <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/jalen-milroe">Jalen Milroe</a>‘s late play.



It’s not looking great for Alabama in the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/ncaa">NCAA</a> right now. Playoffs berth is no longer a lock and the Tide will be in a short leash for the coming weeks. Any further missteps, and they could fall out of contention, altogether. Against the Gamecocks, Alabama had their chance to right their wrongs from the past weekend at Nashville, however, they only brought more questions upon themselves.



DeBoer’s side fell from No.1 in the nation to seventh place in only two-weeks time. Fans in Tuscaloosa can hold on to the win over Georgia, however, as the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/college-football">college football</a> season progresses, that triumph might become a distant memory. 



Jalen Milroe has taken a toll to his game, too. The <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/alabama">Tide</a>‘s quarterback has fallen on the Heisman Trophy rankings and his play has been irregular during Bama’s last two matchups. Kalen DeBoer made a pivotal admission on Milroe, who threw for 209 yards, a touchdown and two interceptions. Although he added two scores through the ground.

“I’m really intentional with him because I know how hard he is on himself,” DeBoer said, via On3. “And this is really going back to – I wasn’t with him last year, but I know in spring ball and just how he was and knowing that we are fighting for each other, fighting with each other – that’s not just me and him. That’s our football team.”

“Those tight game moments, we’re all in this together, and we wanna to continue to learn. And so I’m gonna remind him, coach him up on the situations we’re in, how to apply the things we’ve talked about throughout the course of our time together so far. He’ll remember anything that happened this game. He’s gonna remember what happened to him four weeks ago, and that’s what I love about him.”



<h2>Fire test for DeBoer, Milroe, and Bama</h2>



Alabama needs to bounce back immediately. Narrow wins over inferior SEC opponents are not going to cut it, especially after the embarrassing loss to the Commodores. The Crimson Tide must put on a clinic and return to their best form. DeBoer and Milroe need to prove they are still the program capable of taking down the Georgia Bulldogs. In Week 8, they’ll face a tough opponent, providing an opportunity to set a strong example.



On October 19th, Milroe’s side will travel to Tennessee to take on the Volunteers. The last time the Crimson Tide visited Neyland Stadium, the Vols prevailed 52-49 on an instant classic.

In their sixth appearance in the NCAAF, the Alabama Crimson Tide, facing a crucial game against South Carolina, will be eager to bounce back from their loss to Vanderbilt. Star quarterback <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/jalen-milroe">Jalen Milroe</a> aims to lead a team that has lost a key player in their system for several minutes due to injury.



The player in question is none other than CB Domani Jackson, who left the field with what appears to be a tough injury for the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/alabama-crimson-tide">Bama</a> player. Journalist Mike Rodak via his X (formerly Twitter) account posted: “Alabama CB Domani Jackson, with a towel over his head, carted to locker room.”



The incident involving Jackson occurred in the first half when the Alabama CB was chasing South Carolina quarterback LaNorris Sellers. After the tackle, Jackson limped off the field under his own power and into the injury tent.



Although it was believed that the injury was serious, college sports reporter Pete Nakos updated the situation via his X account: “Domani Jackson is available to return, per ABC broadcast.”

After recovering and making his return to the game, it was Domani Jackson himself who intercepted the South Carolina QB on the final play, securing a new victory for Alabama, this time by a score of 27 to 25

“It’s all about how you can reflect and how can you refine and get better. That’s going to be critical for us to have the 24-hour rule. Regroup, refocus. Challenge each other to get better.”, the talented QB finally stated.
