17 October Roundup Review
17 October 2020
It's the top defense in the nation versus the top offense tonight as the Georgia Bulldogs (3-0) head to Tuscaloosa to face the Alabama Crimson Tide (3-0). Kirby Smart's Bulldogs followed up season-opening wins against Arkansas and Auburn with a 44-21 thrashing of Tennessee last week. The Crimson Tide had a little tougher time at Ole Miss before pulling away in the end for a 63-48 shootout win. Kick off is 8:00 p.m. ET at Bryant-Denny Stadium.

The Houston Astros stand one win away from accomplishing a feat that only the 2004 Boston Red Sox have managed to pull off -- coming back from a 0-3 deficit in the postseason. The Astros picked up their third straight victory over the Tampa Bay Rays yesterday to tie up the ALCS at 3-games apiece and have a chance to go for the historic win today. Lance McCullers Jr (0-1, 1.29) gets the start for Houston, while Tampa Bay will turn to Charlie Morton (1-0, 0.00). First pitch is 8:37 p.m. ET at Petco Park in San Diego.
