I think I saw Jacobs run the ball once maybe twice does anyone know if he was injured or something else, reason is I love that Bo had a great game and he has really turned it on the last few games, but to me Jacobs (especially the Auburn game) had become a force to be reckoned with, maybe CNS is saving him for more duty against Clemson?
 
I recall a swing pass to him that lost yardage and maybe 1 carry. Not sure a freshman going to get many carries when 9 is in beast mode and 34 was doing ok as well. Don't expect Jacobs to be a big part of game plan Monday either.
 
Bo stole his carries.

Been a beautiful thing this year to see the depth of that position step up when needed. It was Harris at the start of the year. Early in SEC play Jacobs was a rock for us... It's been mostly Bo down the stretch. In a perfect world they all get some carries early and go with the hot hand to finish. With Kiffin we never fed them enough to get 3 guys warmed up, but in his defense he seemed to find 1 to produce.
 
I think you definitely go with Bo and allow him to beat down a defense just like Henry did, but Jacobs has proven to be able to handle the load as well. I don't think you can deny his abilities and what he has done for us this year. We are blessed to have three killer backs that any team would live to have. I think they should keep him warm and rwady to go in case the other two don't get going.
 
Saban said after the game he always wants to go with the hot hand and there isnt any doubt who had the hot hand. Considering I think we will attempt to establish more of a power running game I expect to see a lot more Bo Monday too. Maybe Jacobs can get some more touches though because I'm with you on him, I think hes the most versatile back on the team.
