Alabama Running Back Najee Harris Hurdles Notre Dame Defender During Big Run


The Crimson Tide star jumped clear over a Notre Dame defender while running it 53 yards to the red zone.

Najee Harris wasted no time bringing out his fancy footwork and quick thinking as he hurdled a Notre Dame defender in Friday's College Football Playoff semifinal.

The Alabama running back impressively jumped over the player while running it 53 yards to the red zone during the first quarter of the Rose Bowl.

Quarterback Mac Jones then threw a 12-yard touchdown pass to Jahleel Billingsley, giving Alabama a 14–0 lead with a little over two minutes to go in the opening quarter. 

The winner of Friday's matchup, of which Alabama entered as a heavy favorite, will advance to the national championship game on Jan. 11.
