Jalen Milroe

Young's availability will greatly impact the Alabama game-plan and his presence is vital to the Tide's hopes of extending its winning streak to 16 consecutive years.

The Milroe experience was quite the roller coaster for Crimson Tide fans to experience on Saturday night as he showed supreme athleticism and talent on the evening coupled with a handful of crippling mistakes that hamstrung the Tide from running away from the game.

The Alabama Crimson Tide needed a defensive stand to hang onto a 24-20 win against the Texas A&M Aggies in Bryant-Denny Stadium on Saturday night. It was an emotional contest that saw the Crimson Tide play without Heisman Trophy winning quarterback Bryce Young.

The Crimson Tide will now head on the road to Knoxville to take on the undefeated Tennessee Volunteers. Nick Saban takes his 15-year winning streak over the Vols into Neyland Stadium on Saturday, Oct. 15 at 2:30 p.m. CT.

The Crimson Tide is set to receive the ball coming out of halftime and will look to extend its lead into double digits for the first time on the evening.

Alabama head coach Nick Saban called Heisman Trophy winner Bryce Young, "day-to-day" all week and it appears he will be held out as the Tide tries to avenge its 2021 loss in College Station.

The Crimson Tide are now playing backup quarterback Jalen Milroe. Milroe did lead Alabama into the endzone on his first drive to make the score 21-0 but all eyes will be on the Crimson Tide sideline and the health of the reigning Heisman Trophy winner.

Although he hasn't started a game yet, this future Crimson Tide star is already making a name for himself.

Will Anderson had two sacks in the A-Day scrimmage game, helping the White team to a 25-7 victory over the Crimson Team.

Alabama still must settle who will second in line at the quarterback position should the Heisman Trophy winner ever be unavailable.
