What’s a Box Score, Anyway?
Now, a box score ain’t anything too fancy. It’s just a little chart or list of all the things that happened in a football game. It tells you who scored, how they scored, and what the final score was. If you were watchin’ a game like Alabama vs. Mercer, you’d look at the box score to see how many touchdowns Alabama’s boys got, who made them big plays, and how the score ended up at the end of the game. Simple as pie, right?
Alabama’s Game Against Mercer
Now, Alabama done played Mercer on November 16, and if you was lookin’ at that box score, you’d see that Alabama done started off mighty strong. That there’s how they usually do it, ya know. They used their runnin’ game to get ‘em a quick lead. Milroe, that boy, he done scored a couple of touchdowns in the first half. One of ‘em was a 39-yard run—real fast, like a deer runnin’ through the field! That’s the kind of game you wanna see, for sure. No way Mercer was gonna catch up once Alabama had that lead.
Breakin’ Down the Box Score
If you was to pull up that box score, you’d see all sorts of numbers and details. It shows ya how many yards each player ran, how many passes they caught, and how many tackles they made. You get to see everything! For instance, Alabama’s quarterback, Milroe, he was tossin’ passes left and right. I tell ya, the boy’s got a good arm. He even had a few long passes for big yardage. You can look at the stats and say, “Yep, Milroe did his part!”
Now, when you see them box scores for Alabama, you’re gonna notice something. They love to run the ball. That’s right, them Alabama boys will run all over you if you let ‘em.

What Does the Final Score Look Like?
When the game ends, the box score shows the final score. It tells you who won and by how much. Take Alabama’s win over Mercer, for example. The score ended up real lopsided in Alabama’s favor. That’s just how they do it. They got that strong defense and quick offense. Ain’t nobody gonna beat ‘em easy, that’s for sure. You can look at that final score and know the Tide done swept over the other team, just like a big ol’ wave hittin’ the shore!
Other Games Alabama Played
If you were to check other box scores, you’d see that Alabama’s been playin’ some mighty tough teams. Like when they played Tennessee back in October. It wasn’t so good for Alabama, though. That game didn’t end in their favor. Tennessee’s defense done made a big play with that interception. Sometimes that happens in football, though. You win some, you lose some, but that don’t stop Alabama from goin’ back out there next week and givin’ it all they got!
And then you got games like when Alabama beat LSU, real good too. They did mighty well, even in the rain.
