Tua Tagovailoa, Jalen Hurts Shine in Alabama's Dominant Win over Arkansas State

The Alabama Crimson Tide cruised to victory with a 57-7 rout of the Arkansas State Red Wolves on Saturday, with the offense coming up big.

Hours before kickoff, The Athletic's Aaron Suttles (viaPat Smithof The Paul Finebaum Show) reported that, barring injury, junior Jalen Hurts is expected to redshirt this season after losing out on the starting quarterback job to sophomore Tua Tagovailoa.

Unlike previous years, though, Hurts is eligible to play in four games while still maintaining redshirt status. That means Hurts was able to see the field against Arkansas State in Week 2.
