Alabama football’s loss to Tennessee could have been a major moment in UA quarterback Jalen Milroe’s Heisman Trophy campaign. Instead, the 24-17 loss in Knoxville was one of his worst performances.

From the standpoint of the overarching Third Saturday in October rivalry picture, the Volunteers (6-1, 3-1 SEC) have now won two of the last three editions of the game after going winless from 2007-21.

After Tennessee’s Max Gilbert kicked a 41-yard field goal to give his team a 24-17 lead, Alabama got the ball back for its final drive with 1:30 left on the clock. On Alabama quarterback Jalen Milroe’s first pass from Tennessee’s 25-yard line, Brooks picked off the pass and secured the victory.

ESPN’s Ryan McGee, a Tennessee grad (1993) and co-host of the show “Marty & McGee" explained what he likes about quarterback Nico Iamaleava.

Tennessee Volunteers quarterback Nico Iamaleava was having a rough time against Alabama in the first half of his team’s game against the Crimson Tide at Neyland Stadium in Knoxville, Tennessee, on Saturday.
