I don't think it was a courageous move at all. The right move, yes. But not courageous. Hell, it seemed every other post popping up on my Facebook feed during the game called for Tua to be put in because Hurts just wasn't getting it done. Frankly, I wonder why Tua wasn't playing sooner.

I agree with this, Tua should've had meaningful playing time before the other night. Saban put a bunch of pressure on this kid without totally preparing him for that HUGE stage. Saban pretty much said "Here's your chance kid, we're down 13-0 and we've got a half of football left, good luck" Title game is not ideal time you want this, but thank goodness Tua was able to answer that huge pressure!

Who knows though, not getting playing time might of left more unknown without more Tua film to study. We'll never know, will we?

There is a Jalen Hurts cult within the Bama fans no doubt. Anybody that saw the Bama A-Day Game this past spring had to know that #13 has WAY MORE potential at QB than #2. Then again why is Bo Scarbrough getting all those snaps..Hootie Jones....F'ing Tony Brown still playing and he couldn't cover a table with a sheet.

Nick is loyal.....to the point that he might not be

Kirby got lucky because he was in the same sport Nick was at QB...only his starter was hurt and Kirby had to put the best player ahead of the starter.

Shet happens..........Forrest Gump

Things worked out. The auburn game is in the past so no need to go there and play if only. But I’ll bet good money that there were a lot of coaches watching the game Monday and when Tua hit the last touchdown pass they had a oh shite moment.
tDynasty is alive and well.
