2. Jake Browning can’t let the moment get to him
At the end of the day, any chance the Washington Huskies have at upsetting the Alabama Crimson Tide comes down to quarterback Jake Browning. His exceptional season allowed him to be in the Heisman discussion and really elevate his name in the game.
However, he had a few stretches where he was rough passing the football and let the moment get to him. Nick Saban’s defense is going to try and frustrate him early and hope they can rattle him in the Georgia Dome.
Browning can’t let things get into his head and if he does make a mistake, he can’t think about it and has to be ready to move onto the next play. This is his chance to let it all fly and really create history for him and his school.
Alabama doesn’t get fooled by much and he will have to dig in and be willing to take hits. If he can shake off getting hit and limit any mistakes, he will put his team in a position to win. He has the receivers to help him out and put him in a position to succeed.
