Alabama’s football program is so accomplished that it’s not easy making history.
But Bryce Young makes everything look easy.
A quick release. Mobility. Arm talent. Alabama’s sophomore quarterback possesses each of those qualities. But when we reflect on Young’s 2021 season, one trait rises above the rest.
He’s utterly unflappable.
That’s how he made history.
Young became the first Alabama quarterback to win the Heisman Trophy, presented Saturday in New York.
Move aside, Oklahoma. Alabama is now Quarterback U.
When Nick Saban launched this Alabama dynasty more than a decade ago, Crimson Tide quarterbacks weren’t asked to carry the team. Alabama won its first few titles under Saban on the backs of unyielding defenses, relentless ground games and quarterbacks who – if unspectacular – limited mistakes.
*A lot more at the jump.

Opinion: Move aside, Oklahoma. With Bryce Young's Heisman, Alabama football is QBU
