Location: Truist Field – Winston-Salem, North Carolina So, here, give me Nick Saban over Steve Sarkesian every day of the week and twice on Sunday…or in this case, Saturday. Texas’ defense will be taxed facing this type of quarterback and an Alabama offensive line that has size and experience. Alabama played a very vanilla offense last Saturday vs Middle Tennessee State but that won’t be the case in this matchup. Milroe is a true dual threat quarterback that reminds one of a mix of Donovan McNabb and Patrick Mahomes in terms of body frame and playing style. He can run and launch home run style passes downfield as well. I have respect for this Texas offense – Longhorn QB Quinn Ewers is legit and Alabama’s defense needs to be at the ready to absorb the offensive attack that will come from the Longhorns on Saturday.Īll that said, Alabama QB Jalen Milroe could very well be the best athlete on the field in Tuscaloosa on Saturday. This game could very well be a back and forth affair as Texas head coach Steve Sarkesian rolls into Alabama for the first time since leaving his post as Nick Saban’s assistant for the Crimson Tide a few years ago.
