Many games are won and lost in the fourth quarter, but when it comes to the Crimson Tide, a good first quarter can be crucial.
Alabama has outscored its opponents 74-0 in the first quarter this year, 133-20 in the first half.
“We just have the mind-set that nobody can stop us,” running back Glen Coffee said. “We want to physically try to dominate you, no matter who you are.”
The Tide physically dominated the No. 3 team in the country last Saturday, when Alabama scored on all five of its first-half possessions.
The week before, in Alabama’s first Southeastern Conference game of the season, the Tide dismantled Arkansas, practically putting the game away before halftime by building a 35-7 lead.
The Alabama offense looks confident in the first few drives each game, due in large part to the coaching staff’s script for the Tide’s first 10-15 plays.
