The Alabama Crimson Tide showed that they are going to be tough to defeat this season. The No. 2 Crimson Tide defeated No. 3 Georgia Bulldogs 41-24 on Saturday night at Bryant-Denny Stadium in Tuscaloosa, Alabama.
The Crimson Tide had their leader on the sideline. Nick Saban had tested positive for the coronavirus.
However, as the days went on, he had five consecutive negative tests. Due to Southeastern Conference protocols, he cleared with three negative tests in three days.
With the win, Saban has 86 wins vs. AP ranked teams. This ties him with legendary coach Joe Paterno for the most all-time.
