Alabama running back Brian Robinson, sidelined by a rib injury, looks to return Saturday against Ole Miss

Alabama running back Brian Robinson Jr. is poised to return to practice on Monday after not participating in last Saturday's win over Southern Miss.

Coach Nick Saban said that Robinson, who injured his ribs during a win over Florida on Sept. 18, is "day-to-day" heading into a top-15 matchup with Ole Miss on Saturday.

"We'll see how he develops," Saban said. "But we're hopeful that he'll be 100 percent by game time."

Robinson, a senior, is the team's leading rusher with 208 yards on 37 carries.

Jase McClellan and Roydell Williams got the majority of the carries against Southern Miss with Robinson sidelined.
