No. 1 Alabama Crushes No. 7 Florida, 31-6

Alabama is very good at playing football.

I know this because the Crimson Tide rolled up 114 yards on Florida in the first quarter, and snagged a pick at the goal line to prevent an interception, and had five of their 17 plays go for 10 or more yards.

Florida’s not exactly slouching, but the 3-0 score in Alabama’s favor feels fortunate for the Gators, not the Tide; that goal line interception seemed fated, not fluky, and Alabama seems to have this game well under control.
