Sure would have loved to see at least one clip of the most beloved running back in the history of Alabama....Johnny "The Italian Stallion" Musso ....Never forget Musso breaking loose after having his tear away jersey torn off and dashing into the endzone against Auburn... the endzone being pelted with oranges as the fans celebrated Alabama heading to the Orange Bowl to play for yet another national title. The University of Alabama, the team with the most storied and richest tradition in college football history.
Thanks for including Roy Upchurch. He was a hard working back that lost playing time to Mark Ingram and never complained. He had a really good game against Tennessee when beating Tennessee meant something.
I know there's very little actual game footage to use of him, but Johnny Musso should have been on the list. He should've won the Heisman trophy in 1971 over Pat Sullivan- but Bear Bryant refused to do "Heisman campaigns" for his teams. He considered individual awards insults to the other 21 guys on the field. Back then you needed Heisman campaigns to win the award because voters didn't have film of every game to look at and compare. All they had were 1 or 2 nationally televised games a year, and 10 box score stats from newspapers to use. It was up to the school to fund these campaigns and send out their own game tape to the Downtown Heisman Athletic Club for consideration. But sadly, Coach Bryant didn't believe in it. He thought his personal endorsement of a player during press conferences and interviews should be good enough for those people. Johnny Musso was the real deal back in the day. He was the best player in America in the early '70s. He was the "Italian Stallion" long before Sylvester Stallone ever stole the name for his Rocky Balbo character!
Italian stallion was used way before Stallone or Musso.. but yes Musso was the best running back of that era!!! 🔥🔥 I was more into siran Stacy and Sherman Williams.. but damn seeing the old film roll lets me know just how old I am. 🤪
I love that this video features T.J. Yeldon early. He is one of my favorite CFB players ever. He was so exciting to watch because of how agile he was and how he could cut back and turn on a dime. And it so awesome to see Shaud Williams on here. He provided excellent leadership to the team during a tough stretch. And of course he was an amazing RB for the Tide as well.
Kenyan Drake is still my favorite. He is an inspiration. Broke his leg, came back, would get great runs but, could never finish and then, when it mattered most, he did it.
I know footage is hard to get maybe, but it would be great to see Tony Nathan and Major Ogilvie in there somewhere. Especially when it is best in history.
@smoothcollected im not saying you don't have a point but tony nathan did well in the NFL ,Musso was bamas work horse and then his number 22 went to his local neighbor tony nathan it was a big deal to the fans, especially the east side of the city
great job but......Johnny Mack Brown,Tony Nathan, Johnny Musso, Harry Gilmer the list goes on. I understand limited footage but I have found footage of both Musso and Nathan. Youngsters enjoy but Alabama football started way way way before Nick Saban. There are complete games posted on both Musso and Tony Nathan.
You should redo the video and add #22 Musso. I never saw a player give as much as a running back for Bama as he did and I saw him play in person at Legion Field.
I agree, this vid is one of, if not the best you have made. The mixture of the older players, with the ones from the last 10 years or so is terrific. And i was just thinking, having the drake kickoff return would be great, then it came on there LOL. Great job man. Keep them coming.
Someone I'd like to mention: the much maligned Linnie Patrick. But when coach Bryant faced the Auburn Tigers in 1981 with the most wins in College football on the line, Linnie made the greatest two runs in Alabama history IMO.
Uncle Joe Derrick Henry, mark Ingram, Bobby Humphrey. Ain't trash in the NFL. I have no idea what you talking about. Ingram producing in new Orleans. Derrick doing his thing in Tennessee. And humprey did his thing in the NFL
Uncle Joe - That sounds like some hurt feelings. This is about Alabama running backs. What does the NFL have to do with this? The game, coaching and motivations are much, much different. For example, Terrell Davis sucked in college and Trent Richardson was a monster. How does that happen?
How can you overlook Wilbur Jackson. The man still holds the yards per rush record for the Tide. He won a national championship, and a Super Bowl. Oh - and he was the first black man to play running back for Alabama.
These are the best RB's in recent history (last 40 years or so). I'd like to see another of the greatest RB's from farther back but I think that footage would be hard to find. Good Job! I had forgotten about Darby and Shaud Williams. Good to see highlights from them.
Good job mentioning Shaud Williams, Dennis Riddle, and Roy Upchurch. Bad job excluding Johnny Musso, Tony Nathan, Major Ogilvie, Wilbur Jackson, Kerry Goode, and Ricky Moore.
@@tomwolfe6063 - Mark Ingram STARTED playing more at first because Upchurch received a head injury that led the coaches to stop running him in the middle of the field. He was used as a receiving back from there on. When he caught the pass that beat Auburn, he was 3rd string, but not because of any other reason that the head injury.
Not a single season in the past, present, or future that Johnny Musso wouldn't be deserving of the respect that he had during his playing days. Oh, and he could block as well as he could run. To this day, my favorite Bama tailback. He would fall, crawl, claw, twist, and no matter how hard he was hit, his head always faced the goal line at the end of the play. If you don't know much about Musso, you owe it to yourself to dig up some old games from 69, 70, and 71.
He set a record that stands today, most total offense yardage in a single half of football. Versus Boston College. He got hurt, and Flutie rallied his team to beat us in Legion Field.
I swear, you post the BEST content!! Always sharing links of your vids to my family. We're all huge bama fans. Always getting me hype!! Roll Tide bro!! #beattheaggies
I guess I missed Tony Nathan & Johnny Musso...or did the film? Nathan did not pile up numbers, but the wishbone was designed so you could not key on one back. You can't leave out the Italian Stallion or Touchdown Tony!

Not enough available footage of Musso. There's some, but most of it was filmed using a potato looking through an aquarium. RTR. *He was and is one of the greatest ever at Bama.
Major Ogilvie & Tony Nathan. Available film is hard to come by. Great video. Just imagine Coffee having Saban as his head coach his entire time at Bama.
Really? You couldn't include one damn running back from the 1970s when Alabama lived and died by the wishbone. You have Shaud Williams, you have Roy Upchurch, you have Coffee, you have whatever. No Johnny Musso? No Major Ogilive? no Johnny Davis? No Wilber Jackson? Thanks for the memories but you need to do a little more research.
What could Shaud Williams had been if he played his whole career at Bama In 2 years dude racked up 3500 total yards and 20 plus TDs! One of my favorites, back to back years with 80 yard burst against Arky! And that's when Arky had Ken Hamlin and Ahmad Carroll in the secondary!
Such a great video!!! Thank you for taking the time to make this. Seeing forgotten names like Tarrant Lynch, Chris Anderson, Kenneth Darby, Dennis Riddle, Shaud Williams. My Top 5: 5. Bobby Humphrey 4.Trent Richardson 3.Mark Ingram 2.Shaun Alexander 1.Derrick Henry
Alexander the Great by far the best Bama ever had. But man Bama with Ingram, Richardson and Lacey all there at the same time, it wasn’t fair. The the 1992 team with Williams and Lassic, equally vicious.
Roy Upchurch had some fantastic hands for a running back. I also believe that the runs against Arkansas as a freshman and the big "stutter step run" against Ole Miss were THE 2 runs that got Trent drafted. Everyone knows how he flaked out in the NFL, but I hated it for him. He's one of those like Tebow that will go down as one of the all-time greatest college players with little to no pro career.
My top 10. 1. Shaun Alexander 2. Eddie Lacy 3. Derrick Henry 4. Mark Ingram 5. Glenn Coffee 6. Trent Richardson 7. Derrick Lassic 8. Siran Stacy 9. Sherman Williams 10. Roy Upchurch
I agree with you Blake. I've been following Alabama Football for 60 years now. Seen so many good players from each position its hard to say who's the best! I'm just glad the wore the uniform of the Crimson Tide!
I am a rather young fan and didnt have the pleasure of seeing Bobby Humphrey or Shaun Alexander play so I am referring to the more recent running backs when I say this. 6. Kenyan Drake 5. Trent Richardson 4. Mark Ingram 3. Derrick Henry 2. Eddie Lacy 1. TJ Yeldon I would say most people wouldn't agree with my list and thats perfectly fine as this list is probably pretty controversial. I dont think people give enough credit to TJ Yeldon and what he meant to the bama offense while he was there, although you can say this about every other one of the guys on this list as well. I just think that when it came down to the critical moments, Yeldon always delivered. Out of these guys I definitely think that Derrick Henry will have the best NFL career so long as he stays healthy. He is already starting out great, and the Titans are a young team. Time will tell I guess...
Actually Oklahoma and it's not even close. They had a ton of RBs throughout the '70s and early '80s who would have been stars today too. Here's the amazing Joe Washington, and he's not even their best RB: th-cam.com/video/-lbuUTz2IUY/w-d-xo.html
@@christophercampbell9154 Oh I'm Bama all the way, baby! I'm just old enough to remember seeing that parade of Sooner running backs and know how they stack up against Bama's. So yeah, OU has a better running back tree but we have the championships! RTR
Bama has had too many great RBs to count over the last 5 decades - Musso, Ogilvie, Humphrey, Stacy, Alexander, Ingram, Lacey, etc. But if I'm going into OT of a national championship game and had to pick only one RB, I'm picking Derrick Henry 10/10 times. It took him a step to get going, but he could have 40 carries, bludgeon a 4th quarter defense to death, and then run circles around the corpses.
only my own list because all the other lists in the comment section are off: (the old guys I've never watched, probably scattered in the top 10): Tony Nathan, Johnny Musso, Siran Stacy, Bobby Humphrey then: 6. TJ Yeldon 5. Derrick Henry 4. Shaun Alexander 3. Mark Ingram 2. Eddie Lacy 1. Trent Richardson and that top 4 is really close. It's a pity that Drake didn't see enough action to be eligible for ranking, he would be in there, I think.

The University of Alabama, the team with the most storied and richest tradition in college football history.
Was thinking the same while watching, sure would like to see video of number 22.
Yes, Musso was great. Also, Wilbur Jackson and Tony Nathan. The 70's were a glory time for Bama as well. This film is just the "latest greatest".
Honorable mention ~ Forrest Gump
#16 Soon to be #17 You still mad?
V4AR suck it
Not a running back. He was on “special” teams.
Thanks for including Roy Upchurch. He was a hard working back that lost playing time to Mark Ingram and never complained. He had a really good game against Tennessee when beating Tennessee meant something.

@smoothcollected you're saying that the '71 Grambling or Howard football teams could've beaten the '71 Alabama team?
@smoothcollected what a crock of bullshit. You should go to a black college and stay there
Would Johnny Musso start for any of the Bama teams from 2001 till the present?
@@BudTezzy2345 You mean in 2001 with that 7 and 5 season, or maybe 2003 with that 4 and 9? Yeah, he could have.
Italian stallion was used way before Stallone or Musso.. but yes Musso was the best running back of that era!!! 🔥🔥 I was more into siran Stacy and Sherman Williams.. but damn seeing the old film roll lets me know just how old I am. 🤪

Um, Johnny Musso, Wilbur Jackson, Tony Nathan, Major Ogilvie, Ricky Moore, Murry Hill, just to name a few others who deserve credit.
RedElephantStampede you have to do a complete history. We old guys remember and still love the old guys under Bear
RedElephantStampede No David Palmer? No Deuce
Palmer was more of an athlete that did a bunch of stuff than a RB, still was great though
Willie Shelby, Calvin Culliver, Johnny Davis, Siran Stacy, Kerry Goode...
You're right! The Italian Stallion! Willie Shelby from Pervis MS. JOE LaBue and many more. ROLL TIDE!
This list is not valid without #22- Johnny Musso!
thats right he too was a great running back
or tony nathan
!!!!!
@smoothcollected TONY NATHAN ? ; you might want google that
@smoothcollected im not saying you don't have a point but tony nathan did well in the NFL ,Musso was bamas work horse and then his number 22 went to his local neighbor tony nathan it was a big deal to the fans, especially the east side of the city
Great tribute to The Snake at the end!! Roll Tide Roll
The run in the mud in the iron bowl to... man that will stand to the end of time
great job but......Johnny Mack Brown,Tony Nathan, Johnny Musso, Harry Gilmer the list goes on. I understand limited footage but I have found footage of both Musso and Nathan. Youngsters enjoy but Alabama football started way way way before Nick Saban. There are complete games posted on both Musso and Tony Nathan.
Johnny Mack Brown was a great player
Where was Johnny Musso, he was one of the greatest running backs at Alabama. I can't believe you forgot The Italian Stallion
@smoothcollected are you brain dead, i suggest you go look up the Alabama USC game when Musso was a Junior - Does Sam The Bam Cunningham ring a bell?
You should redo the video and add #22 Musso. I never saw a player give as much as a running back for Bama as he did and I saw him play in person at Legion Field.
Siran Stacy!!! The reason I started loving Alabama football!
I use to say its a rap with siran wrap lol he was a great back
What a great video, brought back some memories! All these guys were phenomenal!
R.I.P to my homeboy one Alabama greats: Ahmad Galloway
I agree, this vid is one of, if not the best you have made. The mixture of the older players, with the ones from the last 10 years or so is terrific. And i was just thinking, having the drake kickoff return would be great, then it came on there LOL. Great job man. Keep them coming.
has to have Musso in the conversation
Someone I'd like to mention: the much maligned Linnie Patrick. But when coach Bryant faced the Auburn Tigers in 1981 with the most wins in College football on the line, Linnie made the greatest two runs in Alabama history IMO.
he was very talented but stayed in Bear's doghouse for some reason
What I was told was that he had a drug problem. Coach eventually kicked him off the team.
Forrest Norris Yeah he just didn’t respond well to discipline as well.

The whole video I kept thinking "where is the Upchurch TD against Auburn", and sure enough it was the last clip. Great video!
How can you overlook Wilbur Jackson. The man still holds the yards per rush record for the Tide. He won a national championship, and a Super Bowl. Oh - and he was the first black man to play running back for Alabama.
It’s crazy that this video is 4 years old and there is at least 4 more amazing backs that could be added
These are the best RB's in recent history (last 40 years or so). I'd like to see another of the greatest RB's from farther back but I think that footage would be hard to find. Good Job! I had forgotten about Darby and Shaud Williams. Good to see highlights from them.
what abou Santionio Beard 6 touchdowns vs. Ole miss
Hell ya. This needs an update. Also do best wide receivers .
wow the amount of footage!! thanks man again for the best vids
I know this was a while ago but you are really talented👍
Good job mentioning Shaud Williams, Dennis Riddle, and Roy Upchurch.
Bad job excluding Johnny Musso, Tony Nathan, Major Ogilvie, Wilbur Jackson, Kerry Goode, and Ricky Moore.
Upchurch is among the most underrated. if he matched playing time of Ingram, no telling what kind of damage he would've done.
Are you kidding? Mark Ingram played more because he was better....much better.
@@tomwolfe6063 - Mark Ingram STARTED playing more at first because Upchurch received a head injury that led the coaches to stop running him in the middle of the field.

Wow
Awesome.. but your giving away your age 😆
Talk about sweaty palms. Amazing video as always hope you're staying safe out there man.
ken darby i think is the most slept on running back to come out of bama
I would add Musso and Ogilvie.
Michael Little you know you can't do that.

Shaun runs for 297 yards his freshman year against LSU!!!!
I loved it especially when you showed the ruining back from the 1992 squad im old so forgive me

Alexander the Great by far the best Bama ever had. But man Bama with Ingram, Richardson and Lacey all there at the same time, it wasn’t fair. The the 1992 team with Williams and Lassic, equally vicious.

Bama has had too many great RBs to count over the last 5 decades - Musso, Ogilvie, Humphrey, Stacy, Alexander, Ingram, Lacey, etc. But if I'm going into OT of a national championship game and had to pick only one RB, I'm picking Derrick Henry 10/10 times. It took him a step to get going, but he could have 40 carries, bludgeon a 4th quarter defense to death, and then run circles around the corpses.

Maybe I missed it, but no Bobby Humphries?
One clip of Yeldon?
Bobby Humphrey had them Mad Max thunderdome shoulder pads
Bear Bryant had some good running backs. They just didn't get the stats because of the wishbone and sharing the carries.
But yet Roy Upchurch is in the video and he don’t have the stats either.
