TUSCALOOSA, Ala. — Last week’s dominant victory over Western Kentucky was Alabama’s first home game of the season in Bryant-Denny Stadium and the premier win in the Kalen DeBoer era. But the name of the renowned football mecca changed on Saturday afternoon as legendary head coach Nick Saban lifted a cloth outside of the Walk of Champions that read “Saban Field at Bryant-Denny Stadium.”Jahmyr Gibbs, Eli Ricks injury update from Alabama football's Nick Saban

While two concurrent eras being featured in one game is historic, not everything was magic in Tuscaloosa on Saturday night, as wide receiver/punt returner Cole Adams went down with an injury.

On a key third down in the red zone at the start of the fourth quarter, Adams caught a pass off to the right side but fell on what appears to be his right arm or wrist. Adams gained enough yards to put Alabama at first-and-goal at the 5-yard line.

Linebacker Justin Jefferson was ejected from the game after a targeting call with under 10 minutes remaining in the fourth quarter.
