Alabama dominated Kansas State, 45-20, in the 89th Sugar Bowl on Saturday.
NEW ORLEANS, La. - After falling behind 10-0 in the first quarter, Alabama scored 35 unanswered points on their way to a 45-20 win over Kansas State in the 89th Sugar Bowl on Saturday.
After seeing their first drive end with a Jordan Battle interception, Kansas State forced the Tide’s offense to two punts, getting a 41 yard field goal in the process to go up 3-0. Young, who was named Sugar Bowl MVP, said that even through the rough start, he and his teammates trusted each other to pull through.
Burton would be Young’s next touchdown target when he caught a 12-yard pass just before halftime, but not before Jahmyr Gibbs rushed for 22 yards and Young tossed two passes for more than 20 yards each to get the Crimson Tide into scoring position. “He made some big plays today,” Saban said about Branch, who also recorded two sacks against the Wildcats. “The interception was big. We got off to a great start in the second half with a big play and two scores in the first two minutes in the second half, which kind of broke the game open. His interception was a big part of that.”Trailing 35-10, Kansas State got into Alabama territory again midway through the third quarter, but their drive stalled at the 10-yard-line.
