Running back Jase McClellan strikes first for the Alabama Crimson Tide on a dazzling 81-yard run! After an opening drive that saw Jahmyr Gibbs get multiple touches, the change of pace in McClellan was enough for the Tide to find the endzone first.
McClellan is a Texas native, so striking in his home state has to taste an extra sweet. McClellan is going to continue to be a problem for the Longhorn defense all afternoon.
Fans and analysts took to Twitter to share their reactions to the monster touchdown by the Crimson Tide running back. The score put Alabama in the lead briefly before Texas came back to tie it up.
