in the Auburn win Alabama star RB Derrick Henry carried the ball a staggering 46 times . In this day and age especially in the SEC this or rarely done .
Alabama was down to their last servicable RB and they used the run game to close out the game.

Questions are now coming up regarding how ready he'll be this weekend against a tough Fla defense .how much of a toll did his high number of carries take on him?

Others question whether this was a Heisman push

Knowing that Henry is NFL bound was Saban trying to get the last bit of mileage from his star RB?

How much more tread wear will be left once he arrives in the NFL ?

Was running him 46 times in the best interest of Henry ?
