On the final play of No. 1 Alabama’s win over Texas A&M on Saturday night, Aggies quarterback Haynes King’s pass near the goal line to Evan Stewart fell incomplete, sealing a Crimson Tide victory. The play was heavily criticized after the fact, as Texas A&M missed an opportunity to pull off a huge upset.
However, the Crimson Tide apparently were more than prepared for the final play. Afterward, Alabama cornerback Terrion Arnold said he saw Aggies head coach Jimbo Fisher identify the intended receiver to King.
“He’s going ‘Evan, Evan, Evan,’” Arnold remembered Fisher saying, referring to Stewart, via Michael Casagrande of AL.com.
