Alabama fans were left stunned after the team’s disappointing 24-3 loss to Oklahoma, and the situation took a turn for the worse with the revelation that quarterback Jalen Milroe was battling an injury that prevented him from performing at 100%.
The news was particularly devastating for the Crimson Tide, who were already reeling from the loss. Milroe, who has been a key player for Alabama this season, was seen struggling on the field, throwing for just 164 yards and three interceptions.
Despite his best efforts, it was clear that Milroe was not himself, and the injury only added to the team’s woes. The loss to Oklahoma was a significant setback for Alabama, who had been hoping to secure a spot in the College Football Playoff.
In the aftermath of the game, Milroe spoke to the media, acknowledging that the team had fallen short of their expectations. “It’s all about finish,” he said. “We’ve got to finish. There’s so much left for the football season. We’ve got to get everyone together to have a like-mindedness and just keep on competing”.
Alabama coach Kalen DeBoer also weighed in on Milroe’s performance, praising his quarterback’s toughness and determination. “I thought he kept battling,” DeBoer said. “I looked in his eyes and think he’s come a long way all season long, and just the way he wants to go out there and keep leading the team and guys kept fighting for him”.
As the Crimson Tide looks to regroup and refocus for their next game, the status of Milroe’s injury remains a major concern. While the team has not released an official update on his condition, it’s clear that Milroe’s health will play a crucial role in determining Alabama’s chances of success for the remainder of the season.
If the injury was hurting his ability to perform and anyone could see that something was affecting him.Why wasn’t he replaced by Ty Simpson? The game seemed to be lost !! By the way QB wasn’t playing defense. Looked like no adjustments were made to stop opponents QB from running wild.
I have faith this team will come together. So many changes. Be strong and carry on. ROLL TIDE 🏈
