In a game distinguished by stingy defense, Alabama's 17-0 lead with 10:36 left in the third quarter looks like a steep hill to climb for Michigan State.
The Tide scored on Jake Coker's six-yard touchdown pass to Calvin Ridley. The pass was initially ruled incomplete, as Ridley and the defender struggled for possession of the ball as they went out of bounds. But replays showed Ridley to have possession as well as a foot in bounds before going out and the called was overturned.
Alabama mounted a rare, sustained scoring drive: 9 plays, 75 yards in 4:24.
Michigan State may have to open things up, which only plays into the hands of the Alabama pass rush. Stay tuned!
