Florida State head coach Mike Norvell referred to sophomore quarterback Keelon Russell as a “scary football player”.
Russell and the Crimson Tide offense converted on 5-of-11 of its third down opportunities. Play-by-play of each third down:
-Interception returned for touchdown
-13 yard pass
-Sacked for loss of 5 yards
-27 yard pass
-0 yard run (by quarterback Keelon Russell)
-Incompletion
-0 yard run (by running back Daniel Hill)
-3 yard pass
-10 yards run (by running back Daniel Hill)
-16 yard run (by quarterback Keelon Russell)
-8-yard run (by defensive back Red Morgan)
This Alabama offense was sluggish early on, but they leaned to running the football and good things happened. The Seminoles cannot allow their work-in-progress ground attack by Daniel Hill, Trae’Shawn Brown, Kevin Riley, and EJ Crowell, get going. This gives more stability to their young quarterback Keelon Russell with easier throwing windows. 🍢
