10/25/19 - QB *Mac Jones, rJr/2021, Alabama

Alabama's mantra of "Next man up" for overcoming injuries will be put to the test this week against Arkansas. With injured quarterback Tua Tagovailoa out, sophomore Mac Jones is in. The top-ranked Crimson Tide will turn to Jones on Saturday night against Arkansas as Tagovailoa is sidelined with a right ankle injury. Jones must go from unknown understudy to one of college football's stars to leading man -- at least for one game. "Mac's got to be the leader of the team," Alabama coach Nick Saban said. "He's got to take over the team. When you're the backup player, you're a little bit like the sparring partner, but you can't be that anymore.

"You're the lead fighter. You're the top dog. You've got to do things with confidence. You've got to take command. You can't have bad body language in front of your teammates, regardless of what happens." Alabama (7-0, 4-0 Southeastern Conference) remains a 32-point favorite over the Razorbacks (2-5, 0-4), who are coming off a 51-10 loss to No. 9 Auburn. One of the main questions outside the team has already been whether Tagovailoa will return for a Nov. 9 showdown with No. 2 LSU after an open date. But first things first for Alabama. Jones gets center stage for a change after replacing Tagovailoa in the second quarter against Tennessee. "I've got as much faith in Mac as I've got in any quarterback here," Alabama tight end Miller Forristall said. - AP College Football
