To be honest with you, it kind of pissed me off because I didn't think it made any sense,

ATHENS, Ga. -- Ty Simpson passed for 276 yards and two touchdowns and ran for a score as No. 17 Alabama held on late to beat No. 5 Georgia 24-21 on Saturday night to hand the Bulldogs their first home loss in six years. Alabama (3-1, 1-0 Southeastern Conference) has won three straight after opening the season with a 31-17 loss at Florida State.

The Alabama Crimson Tide boasts 18 college football national championships. And one man has been there for a dozen of them Eddie Conyers. He's spent more than 60 years as a referee at practices, working under such legendary coaches as Bear Bryant and Nick Saban. Now 97, Conyers is still roaming the sidelines to make sure practice officials are up to the task, and quick with a joke along the way.

I'll tell you exactly what I'd do with the first $70 million, Conerly said on Friday evening. I'd pay off Kalen DeBoer and get him the heck out of the University of Alabama. And then I'd take whatever else it took to get rid of the AD. The blonde-haired, sunglasses-wearing southerner seemed to be good-natured about it, but she is clearly not happy with DeBoer after Alabama's football team lost 31-17 to Florida State last weekend.

Alabama wide receiver Ryan Williams is not expected to play against Louisiana-Monroe on Saturday as he works through the protocol from a concussion suffered against Florida State, sources told ESPN's Pete Thamel. Williams, a preseason Associated Press All-American, was helped off the field midway through the fourth quarter of the 31-17 loss last Saturday after his helmet slammed into the ground following his third dropped pass of the game.

Jam Miller suffered an upper-body injury in Saturday's scrimmage and went in for a procedure on Saturday evening. Jam should recover fully with a timetable for his return yet to be determined.

Nolan Wilson, a four-star defensive end from Mississippi, pledged to Alabama, making him a key addition to their 2026 recruiting class. He is ranked No. 53 in the ESPN 300 and has been a high-profile commitment following several recent additions to Alabama's lineup.
