Alabama football fans will be glued to televisions all day today.
Six playoff games are happening on NFL Wild Card weekend. Two matchups will feature a former University of Alabama quarterback. Mac Jones leads the New England Patriots against the Buffalo Bills, while Jalen Hurts guides the Philadelphia Eagles against the Tampa Buccaneers. Crimson Tide fans watched both signal-callers lead their teams to the playoffs.
Alabama has won SEC Championships, national championships and put athletes in the National Football League.
However, it has been 40 years since a Tide alum has won a playoff game as the starting quarterback for an NFL team.
