If Bryce Young wins the Heisman Trophy, Saturday’s game against Arkansas may be referred to as the Alabama quarterback’s “Heisman moment.”

In the second half, Young went over the 484-yardage mark as a passer, a record that previously belonged to Scott Hunter in 1969 against Auburn. Mac Jones came 20 yards shy of Hunter’s mark in the national championship game against Ohio State.

At the 7:30 mark of the fourth quarter, Young was over 500 yards (515) on 29-of-38 passing. The sophomore starter has thrown 4 touchdowns with no interceptions.

It’s shaping up to be a wild one in Tuscaloosa between the Razorbacks and Crimson Tide. Alabama may need Young to keep slinging it the rest of the way.

Alabama leads Arkansas 34-28. The game is airing on CBS.
