George he is our version of the Jacobs kid you had last year, small undersized barely 3 star, we ended up taking because we missed on who we really wanted ( he is at Clemson)
Kinda a class filler like Jacobs but a kid you had to pull for if you ever meet him, great kid hard worker, not an arrogant pompous “me me” bone in his body. I think LSU was hoping he would be senior starter or back up and contribute on special teams. But just like Jacobs (one of my favorite bama players btw) kid has heart as big as a bear and incredible work ethic and football iQ, as well as soft hands. Jacobs success in NFL hopefully will help him in the draft. Burrow is deadly and head of this team but he is the heart and co mvp

Some of us knew Clyde would bring it, no surprise here

I agree with George on that catch, it was unreal in itself and then the run to get the first was the play of the game. He will be a great NFL player

Edwards-Helaire is the spin doctor. Bama has some players getting ankle treatment today.

One thing I noticed as of the UF game is that he is accelerating much faster after one cut. He danced around a little last year and early this year. Against UF, he would make one cut and just go with it and looked faster than I had ever seen him. He gets what he can get rather than looking for homeruns and builds up steam making him hard to tackle. And he comes out of the backfield faster than he did before.
Ed O talked about him constantly when he got him as an RB who would surprise a lot of people. We are seeing what Ed O was talking about now.

He - along with Burrow - embarrassed Bama’s defense. The spin move for a TD and running through 3 or 4 tackles for another TD made our D look pathetic.
