Alabama's injury misfortune against Wisconsin comes with a silver lining ahead of a huge game vs. Georgia
The Alabama Crimson Tide put on a show in their first road contest of the season, dismantling the Wisconsin Badgers 42-10. No one shined brother than their fearless leader and signal caller Jalen Milroe, whose performance catapulted him into the front running for the Heisman trophy.

The Alabama Crimson Tide put on a show in their first road contest of the season, dismantling the Wisconsin Badgers 42-10.
No one shined brother than their fearless leader and signal caller Jalen Milroe, whose performance catapulted him into the front running for the Heisman trophy.

Either way, the bye gives him plenty of time to make his return, something Alabama will need despite Georgia's more than questionable performance against the Kentucky Wildcats on Saturday night.
Jalen Milroe sets stage for Heisman odds boost with monstrous five touchdown performance in Week 3
The Alabama Crimson Tide needed their alien quarterback to help settle an uncertain roster during the first half, and Jalen Milroe responded loudly.
