How Alabama football defense is being tested by Kane Wommack following the first game
Kane Wommack, the defensive coordinator for the Alabama football team, was quite pleased with his defense’s performance against Western Kentucky. It turned out to be a shutout.
Wommack found the defense’s up-front performance dominating, as well as the way it handled WKU’s fast-paced offense, affected the quarterback, engaged in red zone play, and other aspects of the game.
Like any coach, though, Wommack saw his defenders’ room for growth.
He felt that Alabama tackled the ball well most of the time. although not quite.
We need to improve on a few missed tackles on crucial third downs during a drive, especially in vision coverage, where players failed to keep their eyes on the quarterback and failed to put their feet in the ground to drive after the ball was thrown, according to Wommack.
Wommack was not pleased with his defense’s inability to capitalize on takeaways either. Although he saw two interceptions in the first quarter from Keon Sabb as a plus, he was hoping for more.
“I believe we had numerous opportunities to score on defense, and we failed to take advantage of them,” Wommack remarked. We also had backfield opportunities; sacks are fantastic, but turnovers from sacks are even worse.
