From the edge, Michigan LB Derrick Moore (No. 8) was the primary spoiler on the play, crashing inside before Alabama TE C.J. Dippre could prevent him from making initial contact with QB Jalen Milroe, who was stuffed on a run up the middle. On the opposite edge, RT JC Latham was pushed back too far, forcing him to plant his left foot directly in Milroe's path. Guard Jaeden Roberts pulled left but found no target. Meanwhile, RB Roydell Williams flared left for a screen pass, but Milroe never look his way.
