Here are my Top 10 photos from the game action. The most exciting game I’ve ever attended with plenty of fantastic plays. Here is just a small sample:
No. 10
The Alabama running game was very hard to stop and this power run illustrates the blocking that made the Tide dangerous on the ground. All photos by Andy Knef.
No. 9
The Alabama punter Cody Mandell was one of the best college kickers I’ve seen and his long punts kept the Rebels in tough field position all day.
No. 8
On the other hand didn’t you just know those two missed extra points in a row were going to come back and haunt us? Senquez Golson wouldn’t let that happen.
No. 7
We’re glad we won but this was a very sad moment when Alabama running back Kenyan Drake was injured and had to be carted off the field. The Rebel fans handled this unfortunate moment with class and we wish the young man the best possible recovery.
No. 6
The Rebel defense was swarming to the ball like this all day.
No. 5
Thanks to efforts like this by Jaylen Walton the Rebels ran just enough to keep the Tide honest.
No. 4
Which led to second half touchdowns and end zone celebrations like this.
No. 3
The thrilling final Bama drive was denied by more tough defense.
No. 2
The Rebel defense held on during that nerve-wrecking final drive by sheer determination.
No. 1
Forget the good Bo, bad Bo talk. We have one of the best quarterbacks in the nation and he led us to one of the biggest victories in Ole Miss history.
