2. Jalen Milroe finishes with five touchdowns (again)
What a first game it was for new starting quarterback Jalen Milroe. He finished with five total touchdowns, leading the Tide to a 56-7 blowout win over Middle Tennessee.
How could he follow that performance up? With five more scores, of course.
Although his Week 2 opponent is just slightly tougher (I kid, Texas fans) than Middle Tennessee, I see Milroe rushing for another two scores and passing for three touchdowns because, well, he’s going to need to in order to one-up this electrifying Texas offense.
Milroe is one of the better running quarterbacks out there and he’s going to finish with over 50 rushing yards and he’ll pass for over 200 yards. I think his ability to throw the ball is overlooked just because he didn’t win the job right away after spring ball.
The Texas defense is going to struggle mightily to contain Milroe.
