    Antone Smith
    who is apparently still nursing turf toe had 12 carries for only a net 15 yards rushing and 1 TD in the Bama game. The Bama defense as predicted was determined to stop the run and have the QB beat them. Only problem with that was they thought it would be Drew Weatherford. Through four games, the 5'9" and 188 pound junior from Pahokee,Florida has 233 yards rushing and 3 TDs. His longest run has been for 49 yards.
