Two top 25 teams, but Bama's a 27-point favorite; Auburn rebounds easily

Alabama fans are turning Tua Tagovailoa into the greatest thing since the smartphone, or Amazon Prime.

The left-handed sophomore quarterback has been a gun slinging phenomenon with ball distribution instincts that, so far, have been unlike anything we've seen this side of Aaron Rodgers, who seems to have that knack in the NFL.

It's really not that complicated why Tagovailoa is flourishing. He's gifted and unflappable, but he's surrounded by a lot of moving parts. There's Jerry Jeudy, DeVonta Smith, and Henry Ruggs III at receiver, with an occasional big catch from tight end Irv Smith and freshman Jaylen Waddle.
