Where Alabama, Tua Tagovailoa stand in national stat rankings

Here's something you don't often see with Alabama's football team. For a change, the passing offense has a better national ranking through four games than the rushing attack.

The Crimson Tide has the 13th best yardage average through the air, 42nd on the ground. Rushing for just 109 yards Saturday against Texas A&M impacted the numbers for a Tide backfield averaging 204.8 yards a game.

Individually, Tua Tagovailoa leads the nation in QB rating and yards per attempt with two more top-10 rankings. (See the complete listing at the bottom).

There are a few defensive categories that need cleaning up, though interceptions, sacks and third-down defense are among the nation's best.
