How Tua Tagovailoa became Alabama's unlikely legend


DeVonta Smith knew he had a chance. On second-and-26 in overtime, with Alabama trailing Georgia 23-20, the freshman receiver had just learned he was going to run a go route into the end zone. He smiled and looked at his quarterback, Tua Tagovailoa. "Trust me, bro," Smith told him. Tagovailoa, the true freshman who replaced starter Jalen Hurts coming out of halftime, didn't say a word back. (ESPN.com)
