No. 4 Alabama Crimson Tide dominate Wisconsin Badgers - ESPN

MADISON, Wis. — Alabama went from its clunkiest performance to its cleanest, which didn't surprise coach Kalen DeBoer nor his players.

A week after a mistake-ridden win over South Florida, No. 4 Alabama dominated Wisconsin 42-10, delivering big plays on both sides of the ball while also reducing its own mistakes. The Crimson Tide, who had three lost fumbles and 13 penalties against South Florida, did not commit a turnover, forced four fumbles and drew only four penalties in their first road performance under DeBoer, who pointed to a sharp series of practices that «set us up for success.»

«It just takes time,» DeBoer said. «It takes repetitions for everyone, and we were much more in sync this week, whether it was today or whether it was all week, through our game-planning. There's some recall with play calls from last week or the week before, and it isn't just us going against our defense. We're seeing different looks.»

Quarterback Jalen Milroe became the first player since Nevada's Colin Kaepernick in 2010 to record multiple passing and rushing touchdowns in each of his team's first three games. Milroe had three passing touchdowns and two on the ground, as Alabama averaged 7.3 yards per play with four scores of 26 yards or longer. Freshman wide receiver Ryan Williams continued his blistering start with a 31-yard touchdown catch and a 47-yarder to set up another score before halftime.

Milroe avoided a turnover and so did his teammates, including running back Jam Miller, who had 71 rushing yards and a touchdown. Both Milroe and Miller lost fumbles against South Florida.

«After last week, I have to take that preparation on working on protecting the ball even more this week and for the rest of the weeks, in every game,»
