On Monday, Alabama’s offensive went back to work under the guidance of Kyle Flood.
After helping Mac Jones account for 275 passing yards (three scores) and blocking for three rushing touchdowns in a 66-3 win over Western Carolina, the front line now prepares for Auburn. The Crimson Tide will battle a physical defensive front of Auburn, headlined by Derrick Brown and Marlon Davidson. While the right side of Alabama’s front has been successful, Evan Neal (left guard) and Alex Leatherwood (left tackle) must neutralize pass rushers on their side.
