As the offseason quarterback discussion begins, the two Alabama contenders on Thursday wrote messages on social media.
Freshman Tua Tagovailoa, who came off the bench to lead the Crimson Tide to Monday's national title win over Georgia, had a message of support for Jalen Hurts.
"Tired of people not appreciating the fact that if this man led us to the National Championship," Tagovailoa wrote. "And for all the fans that are against Jalen, you against me too. You either WITH US or AGAINST US. Love you 2 #BigBroLittleBro @JalenHurts"
The web has been an active place discussing the title-game swap and what it means moving forward.
