ESPN writer finally gives Ty Simpson some respect - but he's still underrated

It's getting impossible for the national media to ignore Alabama QB Ty Simpson. After an uneven first start against Florida State, the redshirt junior has been nothing short of electric for the Crimson Tide in the three games since.

After carving up UL Monroe and Wisconsin, many were still taking a wait-and-see approach with Simpson. After he did the same thing to Kirby Smart and Georgia, there's nothing left that needs to be seen. Simpson has quickly turned from an unknown to one of the premier quarterbacks in college football.

People are beginning to take notice, though they still haven't caught up enough to overtake what they thought they knew in the preseason.
