The Crimson Tide head coach talked about Alabama's running game on The Pat McAfee Show.
Saban also said Milroe helps the No. 3 Tide complete the transition. A true dual-threat quarterback, Saban noted Milroe is one of the fastest players on the team and has a “tremendous capacity” for big plays. Milroe showcased that against Middle Tennessee State last Saturday with five touchdowns to fill a highlight reel. More importantly, the redshirt sophomore has learned to process better, which Saban said has led to fewer mistakes.
Alabama produced 205 rushing yards against MTSU and will face an aggressive defense tomorrow night in No. 11 Texas . The Longhorns yielded 27 yards on 25 carries in its season-opener against Rice. Saban credited Texas defensive linemen T’Vondre Sweat and Alfred Collins“The two inside guys are really, really good,” Saban said Wednesday. “Strong, powerful, athletic, can pass rush, really hard to block, don’t give up a lot of movement inside, which makes it difficult to run.
