No. 11 Alabama’s three first-half turnovers doom Crimson Tide in ReliaQuest Bowl loss to Michigan

No. 11 Alabama couldn’t overcome a disastrous first quarter in a 19-13 loss to Michigan in the ReliaQuest Bowl on Tuesday.

The Crimson Tide turned the ball over three times in a span of four plays during the quarter as Michigan jumped out to a 16-0 lead.

That turned out to be enough points for the Wolverines to win the game, though they had to sweat at the end. Alabama got to the Michigan 15 yard-line with less than a minute to go, but Jalen Milroe’s fourth down pass to the end zone fell incomplete before getting to the goal line.
