Alabama RB notes a few reasons why rushing yardage slipped

Run the ball. Run the ball.

Run it.

That echoed through the Alabama football wing of the internet the past few years. So, for the Crimson Tide to run for its lowest single-game total in four years Saturday would've been an issue if not for the other thing.

The 109-yard total wasn't a really big deal since Alabama had the fifth-most passing yards in program history in a 45-23 win over Texas A&M.

It wasn't lost on Josh Jacobs, Alabama's junior running back.

"Yeah. It's definitely a big emphasis on, in the running back room, just doing the little things," he said Tuesday.
