A debate over Jalen Hurts happened on Twitter between Alabama fans and Oklahoma fans, but the Crimson Tide is okay.
Hurts will lead the Philadelphia Eagles into the NFC Championship Game versus the San Francisco 49ers. He is one win away from playing in his first career Super Bowl as a 24-year-old. Hurts earned recognition as a finalist for Most Valuable Player and Associated Press Offensive Player of the Year in the National Football League. He finished tenth among quarterbacks in the league for passing yards (3,701) for the regular season. Hurts has 38 total touchdowns, including 14 rushing touchdowns.

Hurts got love from Alabama football on Twitter for him being an NFL MVP finalist. The Crimson Tide nation loves its 2017 College Football Playoff National Champion and two-time Southeastern Conference Champion (206 and 2018).
