we have the veteran center showing his frustration. >> kirk: he took tony brown, and just threw him. he got pushed in the back by tony brown which was, you know, kind of a late push by tony brown and ellerbe didn't like it. >> chris: he talked too. >> kirk: just grabbed him and threw him. >> chris: so saban will get to tony out there. >> kirk: tony brown too. whistles, you know, that's the end. that's after he got pushed. >> referee: tafter the play, we have two fouls. one on each team. unsportsmanlike conduct, number 52, and on number 54. afterwards, second down. that's the first unsportsmanlike conduct. >> chris: this team has cleanly played in

halftime. all you saw was the replay, and the reaction by ellerbe, but as i said, tony brown pushed him after the whistle and that was offsetting. for alabama, they have fresno, colorado, and then vandy. we won't miss at him, and for the key game, it's college station against a&m. certainly a test in the west. lsu in november. >> kirk: you think that's a test? >> chris: you don't think so? >> kirk: no. i think this is more of a test. >>. >> chris: yes, but at college station? >> kirk: no. that's not a test. >> chris: you put them in the playoffs? >> kirk: no, but that's a test at the end of the year. >> chris: auburn in the plains of the iron bowl. the wrap-up show after the game with cassidy

continue the discussion about the 18th hole in a couple of seconds. they didn't have the debut we had hoped for. tough running, and mack wilson w wrestles him down. our thoughts are with deondre francois, and that's the headline takeaway. not just the loss, but the quarterback may have a knee problem. so the tide roll on, and they get 37 straight regular season non-conference victories. saban goes to 14-1, and we hope this is the first of three visits to atlanta. ridley made the big play, but the alabama offense they will feel there's a whole lot to work for. they had the short field really the entire second half, and couldn't put the seminoles until late. >> kirk: in the blink of an

and from 10-7, and we thought it would be a great second half, and boom, obamboom, and boom. >> chris: let's get nick saban's reaction with tom rinaldi. >> tom: you wanted to find things out about your team tonight. what did you find out? >> i think we scrapped in the game, and i don't think we played great. the defense did a great job, especially in the second half, and special teams was a big difference, but our consistency, especially on offense is not what it needs to be. it's great to get a win like this even if you have to win it ugly. we have a lot of work to do, and we know where we're at, and we'll work the get better. >> tom: you stressed finishing, and the last game you finished with a double digit lead, how did you finish this time? >> we finished because they didn't score, and we didn't kick

like, but we'll get better. >> tom: and you stressed special teams to put players on those, and how did that shape the outcome? >> that was the difference in the game in all honesty. a blocked punt, a fumble on a kickoff cover and, you know, the field position that we kept them in the second half was key because they could never get the offense. >> tom: you're a coach that likes to take these games on, and you have throughout your career at alabama. why? >> it tells you a lot about your team, and our team worked hard for this game, and they have respect for florida state, and florida state has a great team, and they will be a team to be reckoned with, you know, this season, and we have to focus on what we need to do to get better. this tells us where we are and where we need to go. >> tom: appreciate it, nick. good win. >> thank you. >> tom: let's go over to maria. >> maria: i have calvin hurts and ridley here. this seemed like

offensively. what was the difference in the second half? >> we just had to come out and finish, you know, last year, we didn't finish, and doing this every game this year, that's one thing we have to do, and i think, you know, we have some room to improve obviously. but it's a process. >> maria: coming into this game, everyone was calling it the greatest ordinary person of all time. what was the mindset you had coming to this field? >> we had that feeling that, you know, we lost last game, but we had to come into this game, and playing a great opponent, and all week and all summer, we was looking forward to that game, and we have been pressing hard against each other all summer so we were looking forward. >> maria: you guys have a pretty good dynamic going on right now. what's it like seeing this guy out there on the perimeter? >> he can play, you know, he just said himself, we can't do it without our other teammates though. deep ball or whatever it is. it's all a team effort, and i think playing a

>> maria: you know to keep moving because you caught a touchdown pass today. >> he helps the offense so much. >> maria: congrats. >> thank you. >> chris: thank you, maria. they have had ten completions and outside of calvin, not much happened in the passing game. they will have to work on that. >> kirk: i think they summed it up. it was a tight game. you are able to block a punt, get great field position, and a fumble, and gets you more great field position. it wasn't a great night for the offense, but it's a great women, and if you can win, and still be able to go back to the film room and say, hey, great win. everybody's telling you how great you are, but look at the film. we can get a lot better. that's the best thing a coach can give. >> chris: nobody

who is recruiting can be surprised when they lose four first rounders, and they have good leadership and a town of good athletes. maybe haven't heard of bvr tonig before, but they have big talent, and it's business as usual. >> kirk: that's the greatest takeaway of this game. some guys emerged as the new leaders of the 2017 team. those great players that have gone through this program are gone, and a lot of them are in the nfl. it's a new group of players turning to become the leaders and you see the baton handed. >> kirk: there's the trophy, the leather helmet rocking behind tom. it was hardly perfect from the saban perspective, but as nick might say, it was aight. 17-point victory, and 'bama, 24 and florida state 7. tonight's game was produce and directed and remember, be right back here in atlanta 48 hours from now over

while barkley and mayfield seem to be in mid season form, it was a bit of a learning process during the other ranked on the day. like michigan was facing off against 17th ranked florida who suspended ten players for the opener. these two teams meeting for the first time in the opener. and they didn't look good. they outscored florida 20-0 in the second half. the gators snapped their leading 2017 season opener winning streak. florida falling, but mark walton, getting four rushing tds, and continuing their strong start over toney brook, to charlie strong, 2-0 on the season. his former team, texas, a rough start to the year. taking on maryland, hill in for the touchdown. the
