  John Metchie III entered Saturday with six career catches for 65 yards, having failed to reach the end zone. He was a high-profile signees in Alabama's 2019 recruiting class, but one faced with the logjam of four wide receivers with first-round potential. Metchie's first opportunity came on Saturday; he turned in a performance that will earn him many more in weeks and years to come. Metchie's five catches for 181 yards and two touchdowns were a catalyst for both quarterback Mac Jones' 435-yard performance and Alabama's 52 points in a 52-24 win over Texas A&M. "I told you about his sneaky speed," fellow wide receiver Jaylen Waddle said. "He got to showcase that today." Metchie's speed helped him be the most explosive player in UA's offense, with three of his five catches going for 35 or more yards and two going for more than 60. His first was a 78-yard touchdown on third-and-8, when Metchie found a way past his defensive back and provided Jones an easy, albeit well downfield, target. Metchie's performance will have an impact beyond a win over the Aggies. It comes after a week in which 22 of UA's 32 pass attempts were intended for the two returning receivers of note, DeVonta Smith and Jaylen Waddle. - Montgomery Advertiser
