Alabama Crimson Tide offensive lineman Tyler Booker did not play last weekend because the Crimson Tide had a rest week.

Players usually spend their rest week practicing for the following week's game and building a strong offense. However, Booker used his rest week for something else.

Booker built the infinity gauntlet, seen on Thanos in the Avengers movies, out of Lego. He spoke to On3.com about how long this took him to do.

“I did not get up. I would be building, I would look at my phone like, ‘Oh my gosh, two hours have passed.’ That happened three times," he said.

It took him six hours to complete. This is an interesting and creative thing to do during a rest week, something that he has done before. Booker previously built a Bonsai tree and a flower pot but is somewhat new to Lego building, having started it during the summer.

Booker would watch college football while making the infinity gauntlet, specifically the Florida State and Tennessee games.

“It was a great time, Definitely took advantage of my bye week,” Booker added.

He is also planning his next Lego project.

"Now, I like the cartoon stuff. I think I’m going to keep rolling with that. I will probably get the Spiderman head next,” he said.

However, this project will have to wait. The Crimson Tide will not have another rest week for the rest of the season.

Tyler Booker talks about Alabama being the underdog against Georgia

Tyler Booker gave his thoughts on Alabama's chances in their next game. This weekend, the Crimson Tide play in what could be the game of the season against the Georgia Bulldogs.

These two teams have had their fair share of success over the last 10 years. This game could be instrumental in deciding who will make the conference championship game.

Alabama is the underdog at home for the first time since 2007. Booker gave his opinion of this when he spoke to USA Today:

"We're really not worried about being an underdog, how many points we're going to win by. Those guys, they probably have never played football before. They don't really know what it takes to play in the SEC. So why should we give them our attention? Everything we're focused on is what we're focused on in this building and what's going to help us come out victorious on Saturday," he said.

Both teams have had a rest week coming into the game, so everyone will be at their strongest for what will be a good one.
