The No. 1 Alabama football team scored four times in the third quarter to cruise to a 50-17 win over The Citadel at Bryant-Denny Stadium on Saturday after the game was tied 10-10 at halftime. The Crimson Tide (11-0) outscored the Bulldogs (4-6) 40-7 in the second half.
Tagovailoa led the Alabama offense going 18-of-22 for 340 yards through the air and three touchdowns. Tagovailoa also added 37 rushing yards, including a one-yard touchdown plunge. Sophomore wide out Henry Ruggs III caught six passes for a team-high 116 yards while freshman receiver Jaylen Waddle ended the day with six catches for 90 yards and two scores.
