Russell Finds His Game in Second Half | Alabama Crimson Tide Football News

Alabama clawed back from a shaky first half to stun Kentucky with a 32-point second-half surge, proving their resilience and offensive potential. Sophomore QB Keelon Russell struggled early—turnovers and rushed reads plagued the offense—but found his rhythm after halftime, playing mistake-free and leading a dominant running game. Coach DeBoer laid it on the line: Russell must trust the run-pass option and avoid forcing throws. The offensive line and receivers also took heat for poor blocking, but Alabama’s halftime adjustment turned the tide. With Daniel Hill powering for over 100 yards and the team executing flawlessly in the second half, this win was more than just a victory—it was a turning point. If Russell masters the RPO and stays patient, Alabama’s offense could be unstoppable in the SEC. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
