Alabama moved the sticks on a Marquis Maze catch that looked questionable on replay. It got third-down conversions on gritty runs. And it got no close to South Carolina on the scoreboard.
After stalling in the Gamecocks' red zone, Alabama sent out kicker Jeremy Shelley for a 31-yard field goal. He missed, and the score in Columbia is still 21-3 in the home team's favor.
