This was more about survival than victory for top-ranked Alabama.
It was outplayed for most of Saturday’s visit to Texas. It couldn’t block. It couldn’t protect defending Heisman Trophy winner Bryce Young. It was overpowered up front and it committed 15 penalties, the most in the Nick Saban era at Alabama.

Before he was hurt, Ewers led the Longhorns on two scoring drives, completing 9-of-12 passes for 134 yards.Two key plays loomed large.
