VIDEO: Alabama's Henry Ruggs Takes off for Insane 81-Yard Touchdown Against South Carolina
By Karl Rasmussen
Jerry Jeudy might be the most renowned wideout on Alabama's roster, but he certainly isn't the fastest. No, that title belongs to Henry Ruggs, and he proved it on Saturday with this jaw-dropping touchdown reception. Quarterback Tua Tagovailoa found Ruggs on a slant route, and after the short pass, the wideout did the rest, exploding past the defenders for an exciting 81-yard score.

Once Ruggs got a sliver of open space, there was nothing the defense could do. Jeudy provided a fantastic lead block and from there it was over. Ruggs went untouched into the end zone to give Bama a 14-3 lead.
