10. DEWAYNE MCBRIDE, UAB (JUNIOR)
Player Att Yards YPA YAC/Att TD MTF Fum Rush Grade
DeWayne McBride 204 1366 6.7 4.7 13 78 4 90.5

McBride is the wild card in the running back class. The former three-star recruit had only three Power Five offers coming out of high school (Lousiville, Purdue and Rutgers) yet hit the ground running as five-stars tend to do. He amassed 439 yards on 47 carries as a freshman in the coronavirus-shortened 2020 season. For an encore, he went for 1,366 yards on only 204 carries (6.7 yards per) for a 90.5 rushing grade as a sophomore. At 5-foot-11 and 215 pounds, he ticks the size box for the position wholesale. All too often McBride sticks out like a sore thumb athletically in the open field against his level of competition.

And in his lone Power Five test last year, McBride passed with flying colors, running for 61 yards on 13 carries with three broken tackles against Georgia. Given Georgia’s 2021 defense, I’d say that’s a darn impressive day.

Mitchell?

Probably saw Zeus coming and knew he had to put on some more muscle. I do like how versatile Skull has been. Hope he excels at his versatility for his final season.
