Nick Saban, Alabama players say Mac Jones is ‘ready’ for the moment

No matter what the College Football Playoff committee thinks, Alabama is in on Mac Jones and it believes the sophomore quarterback is about to shock the world.

National media is not giving the Crimson Tide much of a chance to beat Auburn, let alone get to the CFP or win a national championship. Alabama lost its starting quarterback in Tua Tagovailoa for the season, due to a dislocated right hip against Mississippi State. The injury occurred late in the second quarter – prior to halftime – as the Tide held a 35-7 lead over the Bulldogs.

His surgery went well and he is in good spirits; however, the masses don’t believe Alabama can win without Tagovailoa.
