Milroe made more plays down the stretch than the Heisman hopeful, beginning a campaign of his own.
TUSCALOOSA, Ala. — Coming into Saturday night’s game, the narrative was that LSU’s offense was far superior to Alabama’s — that the Crimson Tide couldn’t win a shootout.Jayden Daniels was the Heisman hopeful. And he played like it. 219 passing yards, 163 rushing yards and three total touchdowns? That seems like the recipe for a victory.
“It’s obvious that is much more comfortable as a passer,” head coach Nick Saban said. “He’s reading things more quickly, getting the ball to the right guy, he’s making really good decisions when he has to improvise. And those things — we want to continue to help him grow and develop.” But to both quarterbacks, only one thing mattered — being ahead on the scoreboard when the clock hit zero. And it was the Crimson Tide's signal-caller that went home with the win.
Milroe has shown impressive growth every week. In his first couple of momentous starts, untimely turnovers cost him. Milroe protected the football on Saturday night, and when he does that, things usually end well for Alabama .
