“This will certainly be where your character of your team gets tested,” Alabama head coach Kalen DeBoer said after the game. “And we’ve said up to this point we feel really good about what the team looks like, but we were undefeated too. My feeling is that we’ll get back to work. That’s what was said down there and that’s what was talked about, so they can make sure they don’t have the feelings that they have down in the locker room right now.”

1. The Controversial No Pass Interference Call
“We can’t put the game in that situation, where the officials come into play,” head coach Kalen DeBoer said when asked about the no pass interference call.
“We just got to control the thing we can control.”
2. Keelon Russell Remains a Dual Threat
“Theres no such thing as containing Russell,” head coach Kirby Smart said on the Alabama starting quarterback.
“That kid is an elite athlete, an elite player. Hopefully we affected him some tonight, and he didn’t have some of the numbers he’s had. But, he’s a really good football player, and he’s going to be hell in this league for two years.”
