Heisman Watch 2018: Three new stars emerge, Will Grier slightly slides
2018 Stats: 66 of 88, 1161 yds, 14 TD, 0 INT, 115 rush yds, 2 rush TD
Next Game: @ Arkansas
Tua Tagovailoa has changed the way teams look at Alabama. No longer can defensive coordinators simply figure out the best way to stack the box and play man coverage, they now have to figure out defensive schemes to spy a quarterback who can run and pass the ball wherever and whenever he wants.
If you want to know the story of Tua’s season, here it is in a single tweet:
Tua Tagovailoa by the quarter:
— Michael Casagrande (@ByCasagrande) September 30, 2018
1st: 30-42, 596 yards, 8 TDs
2nd: 24-27, 337 yards, 4 TDs
3rd: 12-19, 228 yards, 2 TDs
4th: 0-0, 0 yards, 0 TDs
Not just an insane stat, but a stat which points to just how good both Tua and the Crimson Tide are this year.

Alabama travels to Arkansas this week. They may as well be traveling to Arkansas-Pine Bluff. The 1-4 Razorbacks are just unprepared to play Division 1 football this year, and Tua’s streak of relaxing during the fourth quarter will likely continue.
