Kentucky vs Alabama live stream: Watch Wildcats vs Crimson Tide online
Here’s how you can watch Saturday night’s Kentucky vs Alabama game from Tuscaloosa online.
Alabama is clearly the best team in college football right now. No one has really been able to challenge that notion just yet, but the Crimson Tide have already almost been knocked off by a fellow SEC foe — Ole Miss. The Rebels seem to have Alabama’s number, but the Crimson Tide came back from a 24-3 deficit to win.
Freshman dual-threat quarterback Jalen Hurts has officially won the starting job over blake Barnett, a former five-star, who has been the subject of transfer rumors lately. Hurts has passed for 727 yards and five touchdowns with one pick and a 63 percent completion rate while Barnett has 219 yards and two scores.
To no one’s surprise, Calvin Ridley leads the receivers with 224 yards and a touchdown on 20 catches, but he’s been relatively quiet, under his standards, this season. The run game is led by Damien Harris who has 345 yards and a touchdown on 8.6 yards per carry with Hurts second on the team, rushing for 251 yards and three scores.
Another year has passed and Kentucky is still a basketball school. The Wildcats have begun the season with a 2-2 record and remain one of the SEC’s most inconsistent teams. Traveling to Alabama this weekend might be nothing more than a slaughter of an inferior opponent.
Drew Barker began the season as the Wildcats’ starting quarterback and played well in Week 1, but after a poor performance against Florida, he gave way to Stephen Johnson who has been the top QB ever since. He has passed for 490 yards and three touchdowns with a 66 percent completion rate.
Keep an eye on the Wildcats’ run game, though, which is led by Stanley Williams who is poised for a career year. He’s rushed for 464 yards and two touchdowns on 8.0 yards per carry this season already.
