Alabama offensive lineman Racin Delgatty voiced frustration regarding a nullified touchdown during the Crimson Tide's 48-10 season-opening victory over East Carolina. During the third quarter at Bryant-Denny Stadium, a 68-yard touchdown run by running back Trae'shawn Brown was called back due to a holding penalty. Delgatty characterized the officiating decision as a poor call, noting that coaching staff members shared similar sentiments immediately following the play. The game served as the first start at Alabama for Delgatty, who previously competed at Cal Poly for three seasons. Following the result, Alabama shifts its focus toward a road matchup against Kentucky scheduled for Saturday, September 12. The team will return to Saban Field on September 19 for a contest against Florida State.
