When watching the Crimson Tide’s 23-21 loss to No. 11 Oklahoma on Saturday, it appeared as if the offense was struggling to move the ball and put points on the board, but on closer look, it was one of the Tide’s best offensive performances in recent weeks.
Ty Simpson finished the game with 326 passing yards, while running back Daniel Hill recorded 60 of the team’s 80 total rushing yards. Although less than 100 rushing yards isn’t ideal, it’s become normal for the Crimson Tide.
Rushing yards have been hard to come by for the Tide, as the 80 total yards on the ground were the most for Alabama since it recorded 120 against Tennessee on Oct.
