Comments
This is a late season well-timed tuneup game for Bama. Look for the Tide to roll to another victory will giving QB Mac Jones lots of work. They should also give Taulia Tagovailoa some work as well. This has been a ridiculous season for quarterback injuries in the SEC. Perhaps for league games the SEC should implement a no-tackle 2-hand touch rule for quarterbacks to avoid these terrible losses of talent.
