Notes on Mac Jones, Taulia Tagovailoa and UA’s defense from Tuesday’s practice

After dealing with the rain on Monday, Alabama football returned to practice outdoors on Tuesday.

The Crimson Tide is hosting Arkansas this weekend for homecoming at Bryant-Denny Stadium and despite not having Tua Tagovailoa (ankle) at quarterback, the team is highly confident in Mac Jones. Jones, a redshirt sophomore, is in his third season with the program and thoroughly understands the playbook.

Following a strong performance versus Tennessee, Alabama looks for Terrell Lewis and the edge rushers on defense to affect Nick Starkel and the passing game of the Razorbacks.

Listed below are notes from practice.
