Crimson Tide QB McElroy struggled against South Carolina throwing for only 92 yards with no TDs and two interceptions.<\/p>\n<p>This will be a really close matchup will some hard hitting football but Tennessee Volunteers will have to play almost a perfect match to beat Alabama.<\/p>\n<p>Crimson Tide owns the 4 th rank Total defense in the bowl subdivision. Their only weakness will be defending the pass but they are still much better than the majority, so Volunteers QB Jonathan Crompton (13 TD and 9 INT) will have his hand full.<\/p>\n<p><strong>My pick: Alabama will cover the spread.<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong> <\/strong><\/p>\n<h3><a href=\"https:\/\/www.capperspicks.com\/go\/bovada\">CFB BETTING SEASON  PROMO: A 100% match play bonus for 1st Time players Up To $500.
