On Monday, September 29, AAA reported that gas prices in Decatur averaged $2.67 for regular gas—which is below the state average of $2.76—while Huntsville and Florence-Muscle Shoals posted slightly higher prices.

Alabama offensive coordinator Ryan Grubb called a lateral play to left tackle Kadyn Proctor against Georgia because he trusted his players after Proctor proved his ability in practice—Proctor made an 11-yard catch for a first down before the team scored on the following play.
