 *DeWayne McBride, Alabama-Birmingham, Player News


  The worst-kept secret on the Southside is now out and in the ether. UAB junior running back DeWayne McBride will forgo his senior season at UAB, declaring for the 2023 NFL Draft today on his social media accounts. McBride was a first-team All-C-USA selection, earning three player of the week awards this season, and named C-USA Offensive Player of the Year after finishing the regular season with a nation-leading 1,713 rushing yards, breaking UAB's single-season rushing record previously held by Jordan Howard, and scored 19 touchdowns to break Spencer Brown's previous record of 16 touchdowns in 2018.

He led the nation in yards per game (155.7) and rushes of more than 20 yards (23) and broke Howard's single-game rushing record with a 272-yard performance in the season finale at LA Tech. The NCAA active career leader in yards per carry (7.3), McBride was the focal point of a unit ranked fifth in the nation in rushing offense (243.8 ypg). He led the Blazers to a school-record 2,925 rushing yards during the regular season and set single-season program records in yards per carry (7.35), 100-yard games (10), 200-yard games (3), total points (118) and multi-touchdown games (5). - Birmingham Post Herald

  DeWayne McBride ran for 120 and three touchdowns to set a school record and lead UAB to a 41-21 win over North Texas on Saturday. McBride has a single-season record 17 rushing touchdowns this season. Jermaine Brown Jr. had 150 yards and a touchdown to keep the Blazers hopes for a bowl berth alive while ensuring the Mean Green didn't qualify for the Conference USA title game.

McBride scored on short runs in the first quarter but North Texas (6-5, 5-2) stormed back with three touchdowns and took a 21-17 lead at the half. However the Mean Green punted on their next three drives and two fourth quarter drives ended on failed fourth-down conversions. Matt Quinn, who had a field goal on the final Blazers possession before the half, capped the opening drive of the second quarter with another to pull them within 21-20. The next three drives chewed up almost 15 minutes and produced a 2-yard Dylan Hopkins -to-Trea Shropshire score and 1-yard plunges by McBride and Brown. UAB (5-5, 3-4) piled up 234 of its 505 total yards on the ground and held the ball for 15 minutes longer than North Texas. - UAB/AP College Football

  For the UAB football program, life without all-time leading rusher Spencer Brown has been successful. Debo and Skull are the proof in the pudding. The Blazers return 16 starters, seven on offense and nine on defense, and will have one of the best rushing attacks in the nation as they return their top two running backs from a year ago. DeWayne McBride and Jermaine Brown Jr., affectionately known as Debo and Skull, respectively, combined for 2,002 yards and 20 touchdowns on the ground last season and are expected to lead the UAB offense with interim head coach and offensive coordinator Bryant Vincent calling the shots.

McBride had a breakout true freshman season on the Southside, accumulating 439 yards and 4 touchdowns in the truncated 2020 season, including a 71-yard touchdown run against Western Kentucky and a school-record 75-yard touchdown run at Louisiana Tech. He expanded on that last season with 1,371 yards and 13 touchdowns, averaging 6.7 yards per carry, and was named to the C-USA second team. - Birmingham Post Herald

  DeWayne McBride rushed for 108 yards with two touchdowns and Grayson Cash's interception on Marshall's final drive sealed a 21-14 win for UAB on Saturday. The Blazers (7-3, 5-1 Conference USA) held Mercer's potent offense to 269 yards and to 22 points under its season average.

  DeWayne McBride doesn't have the same reaction to his nickname as everyone else. The petrifying villain from the 1995 film Friday usually comes to mind when hearing the name Debo, but for McBride, it's a nickname he shares with his father, DeWayne McBride Sr. Despite the contrasting origins, the younger McBride embodies the intimidating and daunting air of Tommy Lister Jr.'s movie character in his bruising and elegant running style for the UAB football team. The Blazers have hit the midway point of fall camp, two weeks from the season opener against Jacksonville State at the Cramton Bowl in Montgomery, and McBride is prepared to lead UAB's vaunted rushing attack into the 2021 season following the departure of the program's all-time leading rusher. "Obviously, if you watched him last year, you saw how explosive he was and how he finishes runs," UAB head coach Bill Clark said. "High expectations for him and that's what we've heard this whole offseason. He's got high expectations for himself. I think he's been working really hard on pass protection and catching the ball out of the backfield."

Moving on from Spencer Brown was never going to be easy but Jermaine Brown Jr. was able to provide a glimpse in 2019 and McBride staked his claim for a high-usage role last season. While not on the field the first two games against Central Arkansas and Miami, McBride worked his way into the primary rotation quickly -- playing six of the final seven games -- with the aid of the elder Brown himself. "When I got here, he was a leader to me," McBride said. "I didn't know the plays and he helped me by staying on me every day and trying to get me right. He was a good leader." - Birmingham Post Herald
