which would have been the worst case scenario, the play calling would have changed dramatically starting from the 20 because a field goal driving to the 30 is not guaranteed especially with the pressure. Plus the defense is not deflated but pumped and ready rather than being under pressure because the drive is starting from their own 45 or so. That play call was a momentum generator for Alabama and Hurts because it gave Alabama great hope that they had nothing to lose at that point. Worst case a tie. If Kirby punts to the 20 or better yet, inside the 10 or 10 Alabama is thinking we can't turnover the ball down here.
