Alabama defensive tackle Quinnen Williams caught himself Thursday moments before saying something negative about Oklahoma quarterback Kyler Murray.
Williams was talking to the media about whether he’s played a gunslinger like the Heisman winner before. Seems normal enough. Topics like that get discussed all time.

Here’s some free advice for everybody on Alabama. Go out there and play the game. Let the play on the field do the talking.
Don’t talk garbage about Kyler Murray before a single snap has been taken. The man didn’t win the Heisman by accident. He won it because he is incredible at slinging footballs and running all over the place.

Tune in Saturday on ESPN to watch Oklahoma and Alabama battle it out on the gridiron. Something tells me Murray might be gunning for Williams after seeing this video.
