Alabama’s defense did a good job against KJ Jefferson (Arkansas) and Will Rogers (Mississippi State), but it struggled against Quinn Ewers (Texas) and Hendon Hooker (Tennessee).
Jayden Daniels, a transfer from Arizona State, brings the Crimson Tide a different challenge as LSU’s signal-caller. He has been playing his best football as of late, especially in the Tigers’ matchups against Tennessee, Florida, and Mississippi. Daniels, a California native, tossed six touchdowns to one interception combined in those games. He completed over 70 percent of his passes versus the Volunteers, Gators, and Rebels. Daniels had 248 passing yards, 121 rushing yards, and five total touchdowns during LSU’s 45-20 victory over Ole Miss.
