Alabama fans can celebrate, as Tennessee native Ty Simpson led the Crimson Tide to a victory over the Tennessee Volunteers.
Alabama and Tennessee met for the Third Saturday in October rivalry game. Last season, Tennessee defeated Alabama 24-17 in Neyland Stadium, marking their second consecutive home win over the Tide.
Alabama sought revenge after dropping three road games last season and aimed to contain Tennessee's high-flying offense. A win would have propelled Alabama into the top five nationally, solidifying its position as a national title contender and earning its fourth win over a ranked opponent.
