The Alabama Crimson Tide delivered not one, but two devastating blows to the Auburn Ti

Transcript

00:00 It was a big week against the barn for the Alabama Crimson Tide,

00:03 landing the recommitment of five-star wide receiver and Auburn target Ryan Williams,

00:06 and defending home court against the Tigers in Coleman Coliseum on Wednesday night.

00:10 Williams is ranked as the number two player in the state of Alabama and is a top ten prospect in the

00:15 nation. At six feet tall and 165 pounds, he may not have the same size as Julio Jones, but he

00:20 certainly makes up for it with speed. Williams is an absolute burner in the open field and his stats

00:25 from his time at Sarah Lynn back it up. In just his senior season alone, he hauled in 88 passes for

00:30 over 1600 yards and added 700 yards on the ground as well. Not to mention he finished the year with

00:34 over 30 combined touchdowns. The Alabama Nation has good reason to be as excited as they are for

00:38 Williams coming to Tuscaloosa. And as if Wednesday night wasn't sweet enough for Alabama fans, the

00:42 Crimson Tide took down the eighth ranked Auburn Tigers 79 to 75 on the backs of one of the most

00:47 raucous crowds Coleman Coliseum has ever seen. Senior Mark Sears dominated from start to finish,

00:52 leading the Tide with 22 points, eight assists and five rebounds. Latrell Wrightsell Jr. stepped

00:57 into the starting lineup and played lights out, finishing the game with 14 points and nine boards.

01:02 Now at 13 and 6 and tied for first place in the SEC, Natos and the Crimson Tide are in the driver's seat.
