Way better than Hurts but he definitely wasn’t throwing for Ridley on that tying TD. Lol

Saban made the wrong call to go with the running QB with no passing ability at the QB position when there was a better option.

Hawaiian pride must be busting at the seams tonight.
I read somewhere Tua has a younger brother who also plays quarterback.

Re: Tua Tagovailoa
the link gave the wrong answer, no lefty qb because even leftys that throw are often not true left handers, they only throw lefty, and not very hard. only thing Phil Mickelson does lefty is golf. So you wont see a hard throwing lefty, even the qbs that made nfl all had below average arm strength. a baseball throw is different, ive seen guys with 90 mph fastball in baseball that couldn't throw a football 30 yards.

:doh1Vick had one of the strongest arms the NFL has ever seen. Just a sample, a 75 yards in the air throw. Bobby Douglass, although he sucked as a QB, also had amazing arm strength.
Re: Tua Tagovailoa
they mentioned it on the telecast
the whole family moved from Hawai'i to the mainland and he has a younger brother in HS playing QB

Re: Tua Tagovailoa
What accuracy. I liked how Tua thanked Jesus right after win, class act and comes from a much better family than most of these thugs. Trump got a standing ovation, fantastic football game in an amazing stadium. No having to deal with crappy fields, crappy weather
Overall a beautiful night in Atlanta

He's lucky the game was being played in Georgia, there are plenty of places where he would have gotten booed off the field, in fact I think the only reason he was there was because the game was being played in a very red state, one that supported him, had the game been played in an area of the country that doesn't support him, he probably doesn't attend

Re: Tua Tagovailoa
While the kid played great, one half of football is enough for you to think he's a top 5 pick in this year's draft? He might turn out to be as great as he looked last night, but something to keep in mind is UGA wasn't prepared for him, they didn't game plan for him, their defense was set up to stop Bama with Hurts at QB, and they dominated the first half defensively, I think Smart and his staff were caught off guard when Tua started the second half. Had they known he would play, I'm sure they would have had a defensive plan geared toward stopping him, not that they would have stopped him anyway, I don't know, but the element of surprise definitely helped Tua and Bama execute offensively the second half. We'll find out what he's made of next year as he figures to be the starter, I'm sure the kid will be just as great as last night, you could see how much ability he has, but I'm just not ready to proclaim him the next big thing based off one half when he wasn't game planned for.

Re: Tua Tagovailoa
I wouldn't expect Smart to say anything else, is he really going to say he and his staff weren't prepared for Tua coming in? He would never admit he wasn't ready, or the media and fans would eat him up, so of course he'll say all the right things, and we'll likely never know, but IMO the Dogs weren't ready for Tua

Re: Tua Tagliovia
lol the 3rd one was in OT
It was a spot on analysis. I'm the one who said Alabama benches Hurts at half time early in the first quarter.
Did he get benched at half? 12io4j2w90

Sorry sweetie, but Georgia is a red state, had the game been played in LA, the pig wouldn't have shown his fat orange face since he knows he would get booed off the field
