What’s Really Wrong With Alabama’s Run Game? "The Film Guy" Brooks Austin Breaks It Down Nov 12, 2025

Show notes

“The Film Guy” Brooks Austin joins The Next Round for a deep, film-driven breakdown of Alabama football. We examine what is holding the Crimson Tide’s run game back in 2025. Is the issue scheme, offensive line execution, or running back play? Brooks details the problems he's seen and explains what must improve for Alabama to regain its ground-game identity.

We also preview Alabama vs. Oklahoma, including how the Crimson Tide’s offense matches up against the Sooners’ stout defense and what quarterback John Mateer brings to OU’s attack. Brooks highlights why linebacker Yhonzae Pierre is emerging as one of Alabama’s most explosive defensive players and how he could impact Saturday’s matchup.

This episode is packed with Alabama football analysis, Oklahoma scouting insight, and high-level college football breakdowns.
