Alabama Football: Who is No. 2 is the new quarterback question

For the first time in what feels like forever, Alabama football does not have a debate over who will be the No. 1 quarterback. Only injury could keep Tua Tagovailoa from taking the first snap against Duke next fall.

The Alabama football fanbase is never content without roster decisions to stew over. There will be plenty of new starting assignments decided over the next several months. The one, non-starting role that will garner equal attention will be who backs up Tua. Mac Jones is the heir apparent No. 2, but he will have to prove he can handle the pressure of literally being one play away from being the Alabama football starter.
