The Alabama defense struck once again on Saturday night when linebacker Ryan Anderson intercepted a pass and returned it 26 yards for a touchdown.

The senior picked off Washington quarterback Jake Browning in the second quarter of the Chick-fil-A Peach Bowl and gave Alabama a two-score lead right before halftime. The touchdown was the 11th by the defense in 2016 and the first for Anderson.

After the game, the linebacker met withe media to talk about the big play and discuss the defense's stellar outing against a solid Huskies offense. You can listen to what he said in the video above.

Alabama will close out the season and look to repeat as national champions against the Clemson Tigers on January 9.
