Alabama’s JC Hassenauer was named SEC Offensive Lineman of the Week after his performance in the Crimson Tide’s 56-0 win over Mercer. Hassenauer played 45 snaps and graded out at 91 percent. It is the first selection of Hassenauer’s career.
Hassenauer has been filling in for an injured Ross Pierschbacher (ankle) at left guard. On Saturday, he did not allow a sack or pressure. He also helped Alabama rush for 265 yards on the day.
Whether Alabama will need Hassenauer’s services against Auburn remains to be seen.
