Following a long stretch of SEC matches, Jalen Milroe and the Alabama Crimson Tide had a tune-up match versus FCS Chattanooga on Saturday.
To state that the offense was shooting on all cylinders would be an understatement as the Crimson Tide leapt out to a 38-7 halftime lead over the Mocs and looked strong as their SEC Championship match versus Georgia looms big at the start of December.

Jalen Milroe did not have an insufficient pass in the veryfirst quarter. He’s 10-10 for 169 lawns, 1 TD, 0 INT
The hurrying attack produced first-half goals from Jase McClellan and Roydell Williams while Jermaine Burton, Malik Benson and Robbie Ouzts scored through the air. Kristian Story got an interception on the defensive side of the ball while Will Reichard included a field objective to wrap up the first-half scoring.
Still, the star of the videogame was Milroe, and fans on social media were fast to appreciation his enhancement and thrust him into the Heisman discussion.

Jalen Milroe is on the cusp of Crimson Tide history! One more TD and he’ll lock horns with the famous Najee Harris at 30, intending for that soughtafter ninth area in Bama’s single-season TD
