Ineffective in loss to Georgia Hill notched four rushes for 15 yards and reeled in 3 of 4 targets for 24 yards during Saturday's 20-17 defeat to Georgia.

Impact Hill didn't see much work in the running game against Georgia and was used a bit more in the passing attack. Hill has been Alabama's best pass blocker out of the backfield and was certainly more utilized in that regard against the Bulldogs. Hill saw much of the rushing work go to Trae'shawn Brown and EJ Crowell.

Touchdown in blow out win Hill recorded eight carries for 15 yards and one touchdown and gathered in their only target for five yards during Saturday's 49-18 win against South Carolina.

Impact With the traditional running back workload being shared across three backs and the additional development in the quarterback running game for the Crimson Tide offense, Hill finally felt the impact in production. Hill did still manage to score a touchdown to buoy his fantasy production slightly. Things don't seem to be changing and Hill may even continue to lose some reps with as EJ Crowell continues to do incredible things when on the field. Hill will likely be very touchdown dependent in terms of fantasy production moving forward.

Big day in road win Hill notched 18 carries for 104 yards and one touchdown and hauled in 2 of 3 targets for 12 yards during Saturday's 45-17 win versus Kentucky.

Impact Much like the game itself for Alabama, it was a tale of two halves for Hill. Hill had a modest first half with just seven carries for 36 yards. However, Hill came alive in the second half with 13 carries for 86 yards highlighted by a 31-yard tote late in the 3rd quarter to set up his 3-yard touchdown run. Hill was by far the most effective back for the Crimson Tide in this one and received the lion's share of the workload.

Two TDs in big win over ECU Hill logged nine rushes for 47 yards and two touchdowns and caught all two targets for 10 yards during Saturday's 48-10 victory against East Carolina.

Impact Alabama used four running backs fairly evenly in the season opener however, Hill opened the game as the starter and led the Tide in carries and yards for the running backs. Hill also led the team with two touchdowns as he punched in a couple scores from inside the 5-yard line. It will be interesting to see how Alabama continues to divvy up the workload across the running back group as it looks like they will continue to spread the wealth across a talented running back corps.

Looks like starter in spring Hill took first-team reps in Alabama's spring practice drills open to reporters, AL.com reports.

Impact Hill looked positioned to take over as Alabama's starting tailback when the Crimson Tide's season ended, and indeed, he was the first ball-carrier through drills in the portion of practice open to reporters. Alabama needs to replace Jam Miller in the backfield, but Hill - with 487 all-purpose yards and six touchdowns last season - looks like no slouch himself.

MARCH 13 • ROTOWIRE

Warming up with starters Hill was observed as the first running back going through drills ahead of Saturday's game against Georgia, Charlie Potter of On3.com reports.

Impact In the absence of Jam Miller (lower leg), Hill is expected to see a larger workload during the SEC Championship and has been running with the first team during pregame warmups. The sophomore running back back has averaged 3.8 yards-per-carry on 57 carries across nine appearances this season.
