Bama Quarterback Jalen Milroe Has 10 Touchdowns in Last Two Games

LEXINGTON, Ky. (AP) — Benched after losing to Texas and scrutinized at times since then, Alabama quarterback Jalen Milroe has regained his starting spot — and has put together a string of impressive efforts to answer the critics.

The past two weeks in particular have shown how much the sophomore has progressed for No. 8 Alabama.

Milroe has 644 yards of offense and 10 touchdowns in that span, including six scores in Saturday’s 49-21 rout of Kentucky. The latter tied for the second most in Crimson Tide history with notable predecessors such as Tua Tagovailoa and 2021 Heisman Trophy winner Bryce Young, who he backed up last season as a redshirt.

“I think experience is the best teacher,” said Milroe, who has started the past seven contests for the Crimson Tide (9-1, 7-0 Southeastern Conference, No. 8 CFP). “I’m seeing things much better. I’m not a finished product.”
