re: Alabama RB Bo Scarbrough not at practice today

Neither guys are going to break ankles or anything. I think Bo definitely benefited from a more balanced and complex scheme while Pettway had about 250 carries and they were ALL dives right up the middle which makes it difficult to break long runs or tackles. On the flip side, you could say Pettway benefited from an offense that was commited to feeding him the ball over and over in the power run game while Bo was for the most part in more of a finesse first, power second run game.

Basically, they are both really good running backs that have had injuries that prevented them from having a full season and will be loads in 2017, assuming they stay healthy (which is a big if).
