Milroe also got things done on the ground as he rushed for 48 yards on seven attempts and two touchdowns with an average of 6.9 yards per carry.
The redshirt sophomore certainly made his case to be the team’s starting quarterback going forward and he will have his next big test when Alabama takes on Texas this weekend.
