“Jalen Hurts is a great person to look at when it comes to handling adversity, when it comes to playing the position,” Milroe said. “I’m a Texas kid. He’s a Texas kid, and he was one of the reason why I came to University of Alabama. If we look back when Alabama played Georgia, then he stepped into the game. So, I wanted to represent him today.
