Alabama alters CFP game prep after Michigan’s sign-stealing scandal

The lingering effects of the Michigan’s alleged sign stealing hasnt seemed to dissipate, and it’s apparently changed the way that Alabama has been preparing for their New Years Day meeting with the Wolverines in the Rose Bowl.

A number of Alabama players confirmed to reporters in California that the team has implemented new security precautions in how it has been handling its film study.

Players have not been able to bring their iPads home with them to watch practice film, and they’ve only watched game clips as a team, per USA Today’s Dan Wolken.

The added security measures come after Michigan became embroiled scandal that gripped college football.

Former Michigan football staffer Connor Stalions was accused of devising an intricate sign-stealing and in-person advanced scouting scheme.

Stalions resigned in the wake of the scandal and Harbaugh was suspended the final three Big Ten games of the season.

Despite all of the allegations and staff changes, Stallions and Michigan were never accused of computer hacking to gather information.

“We were able to watch film as a team, but like personally we can’t watch film because I don’t know, some reason Michigan stealing signs,” Alabama receiver Isaiah Bond told reporters, according to the Tuscaloosa News.
