Traditional running teams often play an offense described as three yards and
a cloud of dust. Saturday night, Alabama running backs Trent Richardson and
Eddie Lacy’s play could be described as three yards or a cloud of dust, a
cloud of dust the dynamic duo left defenders in.
The two running backs took turns breaking electrifying touchdown runs,
scoring on four 40-plus yard touchdowns en route to a combined 328 yards on
20 carries.
“I’ve never seen anything like that,” Lacy said. “When we broke it was
30 or 40 plus yards, but when we ran short plays it seemed we only got a few
yards.”
Lacy and Richardson both had career days. Lacy rushed for 163 yards on nine
carries. Lacy racked up most of his runs on just two plays, 43 and 67-yard
touchdown runs. The 67-yard scamper was the longest in Lacy’s career.
“That is one of the best feelings as a running back,” Lacy said. “You don
’t have to worry about anybody touching you or hitting you. The offensive
line did what they are supposed to do and the wide receivers blocked down
field, just scoring a touchdown is one of the best feelings ever.”
For Richardson, it was much of the same story. The Heisman hopeful had just
23 yards on six carries in the first quarter. Richardson, however, turned on
the jets late, scoring on 58-yard and 71-yard touchdown runs en route to
169 yards on 11 carries.
“It is always a relief (to get a big gain),” Richardson said. “You pound
them and pound them for so long, and you are sitting there waiting. You know
you are going to pop off sooner or later, and we did.”
Alabama’s 347 rushing yards are the most the team has rushed for all season
. Both running backs credited the performance of the offensive line to
create big holes to run through.
“The offensive line looked great,” Lacy said. “I love them. They are only
getting better every week, and I am behind them 100 percent.”
Alabama center, William Vlachos, said the big runs indicated that everybody
on the line was doing his job.
“It is a sign of everybody knowing who they are responsible for,” Vlachos
said. “When we do it right, that is the kind of stuff that happens.”
With the Tide losing several running backs to transfers and injuries this
off-season, many questioned the team’s depth at running back. However,
Richardson and the offense were never concerned.
“A lot of people questioned it,” Richardson said. “We weren’t worried
about it, because we knew we had a lot of people that could step in. Jalston
Fowler, Eddie Lacy and Blake Sims, those boys bring a lot to the table. I
know that when I am out, I am secure with them in the game.”
As the Tide move past North Texas, it will now have to focus on SEC defenses
, as the team begins SEC play Saturday against Arkansas.
“Now that we are in SEC play everybody is good,” Lacy said. “It comes
down to whoever wants it more. It is going to be a hard fought game from
here on out.”
Last game’s performance should give the Razorbacks plenty of things to
focus on. Richardson said that due to the weapons Alabama has on offense, it
is a very hard offense to plan for.
“They are going to have to watch a lot of film on us,” Richardson said. “
Like I said, we are not just a one player team. We have Marquis Maze, Darius
Hanks, Kenny Bell, and then we got the run game with Eddie Lacy, Jalston
Fowler and me. We are moving the ball and our quarterbacks are good.”
Now that the Tide has received a sneak peek of how good its running game can
be, the trick will be maintaining the success on offense for the remainder
of the season.
“It seems like this offense is really starting to click and gel together,”
Richardson said. “The chemistry is starting to get together and the
offensive line did pretty well the second half so we just need to keep
moving on.” | B******m

防守我觉得vinnie senseri真是不错，要不是他那个tackle咱们没办法shutout UNT。
Upshaw说队里面最凶狠的hard hitter，他自己是一个，另一个就是senseri。
