Western Kentucky at #1 Alabama
When: Saturday, Sept. 10, 3:30 p.m. ET
Last meeting: Alabama beat Western Kentucky 35-0 in September 2012.
What to watch for
Western Kentucky (1-0) opened the defense of its Conference USA title with a 46-14 win over Rice, getting 517 passing yards and three touchdowns from South Florida transfer Mike White. The Hilltoppers have wins over SEC teams in three of the last four seasons, winning at Vanderbilt to open 2015 and beating Kentucky in 2012 and 2013.
Alabama (1-0) destroyed USC in a 52-6 blowout, buoyed by true freshman Jalen Hurts' four total touchdowns. The Crimson Tide have won 13 straight games and haven't fallen to a non-Power Five team since 2007, when Nick Saban's first Tide squad dropped a 21-14 decision to Louisiana-Monroe.
As impressive as White's performance was against Rice, he won't get enough time to come close to that number against Alabama.
Prediction: Alabama 46, Western Kentucky 20

Was just skimming through this thread, and wanted to add something
BB did not come back in the game till the game was over because...
That look in his eyes.
Anyone here that denies they saw it is clueless. CNS even told the halftime broadcaster that BB did not look comfortable.
Hurts never had that look. Hurts came into the game with the team trailing, and he never had nothing but an ice cold look in his eyes.
This is probably why BB seems to meltdown during the scrimmages. He gets shook under pressure, and that to me is the scariest thing about BB.
Hurts makes it 11 vs 11 on offense, and that is the future of the game.
