NASHVILLE, Tenn.–– Alabama said all the right things throughout the week. Head coach Kalen DeBoer said he felt like his team 'prepared hard' all week long, but

Vanderbilt pulled off one of the biggest upsets in SEC history on Saturday, downing No. 1 Alabama 40-35 at home. This is Vanderbilt's first win against a top-five opponent, and its first win against Alabama since 1984.

After Week 5’s games, Alabama replaced Texas as the No. 1 team, but it looked like anything but against Vanderbilt. Its defense was filled with holes, and the offense struggled to get much going, especially after Heisman Trophy favorite Jalen Milroe throwing a pick-six on the Crimson Tide’s first possession.
