Most of the pre-game sizzle about Saturday’s Alabama football contest with South Carolina involves the quarterbacks. Gamecocks’ fans are pumped about their new guy, true freshman, Ryan Hilinski. Some of them believe the young man is an upgrade over Jake Bentley.
Those fans are also hoping Hilinski has some Stephen Garcia audacity in him. It will be a great stage for Hilinski to showcase his skills. To the extent he does, they will be overshadowed by Tua Tagovailoa.
Tua, given adequate time, will carve up the Carolina secondary. Muschamp has a very good defensive back in Jaycee Horn.
