Alabama’s rushing attack is improving each week and after a performance that saw both its featured running backs average over five yards per carry, it has a chance to be really good next week versus Jimbo Fisher and Texas A&M at Kyle Field in College Station, Texas.
The success has been geared toward the offensive line starting to mesh well together and the return of Deonte Brown to the rotation. After missing six games, dating back to last year’s College Football Playoff, the redshirt junior came back against Mississippi and played well.
He rotated with Evan Neal at left guard in the second half and the duo of Najee Harris and Brian Robinson did not lose a yard as runners.
