Alabama’s Bryce Young won the Heisman Trophy a year ago by putting together a monster season for Alabama, passing for nearly 4,900 yards and 47 touchdowns.
And while the California native is just getting his junior campaign started, he has to be considered the favorite to win the coveted award again, provided his team has the type of season it’s expected to have.
The Crimson Tide lead Utah State 41-0 at halftime and Young is already 18-of-28 for 195 yards and 5 touchdowns and he’s also rushed for 96 yards.
Not surprisingly, his strong start to the new season has been a frequent topic of conversation on social media tonight:
