Keelon Russell produced the third 300-yard game of his Alabama Crimson Tide career in Saturday's 31-20 win over the Texas A&M Aggies.

Russell was responsible for three of Bama's four touchdowns in the bounce-back win in SEC play.

Russell took over the game in the fourth quarter with a pair of touchdown passes.

The first-year starter hit Marshall Pritchett for the go-ahead score that moved Bama up by four points.

Russell then connected with Kaleb Edwards for his third touchdown pass of the day to finish off the win over the Aggies.

Just over half of Russell's 311 passing yards went to Rico Scott, who led all pass-catchers with 156 yards on six receptions.

Russell got some help from his defense early in the contest. Dijon Lee Jr. kicked off the scoring with an interception return for a touchdown.

Russell's starring role in the fourth quarter made up for the interception and fumble he lost during Saturday's game.

Although he isn't eligible for the 2028 NFL draft, there's already a decent amount of buzz regarding Russell's potential given his play in 2026 and the struggles experienced by many of the class of 2027's top prospects, like Arch Manning.

Russell is now up to 12 touchdown passes and 1,746 passing yards this season. He'll have to wait until November to add to those statistics. Bama is off next week before it heads to Baton Rouge for a massive SEC clash with the LSU Tigers.
