Alabama received a massive boost ahead of its College Football Playoff matchup against Oklahoma, as running back Jam Miller is officially set to play. After days of uncertainty surrounding his availability, the Crimson Tide now know they’ll have one of their most reliable offensive weapons on the field when it matters most.
Miller has been a key piece of Alabama’s offense all season, providing consistency, explosiveness, and balance in both the run and passing game. His ability to find yards after contact and contribute in pass protection has made him a trusted option in high-pressure moments. Getting him back for a playoff game gives Alabama more flexibility in its game plan and takes pressure off the passing attack.
Facing an Oklahoma defense that thrives on speed and disruption, Miller’s presence could be the difference in controlling tempo. Alabama’s coaching staff has emphasized the importance of establishing the run early, and having Miller available allows them to stick to that identity rather than forcing adjustments on the fly.
With the College Football Playoff stage set, Alabama enters the matchup with renewed confidence. Jam Miller being cleared to play not only strengthens the Tide’s offense but also sends a clear message — Alabama will be as close to full strength as possible when the stakes are at their highest.
