With a win, Jones would become just the third Alabama player and first Crimson Tide QB to win the award. He's also brought his A-game to the biggest tests with 18 touchdowns and just three interceptions against ranked opponents.

Jones is also on pace to have the highest completion percentage (76.5) by an Alabama QB in school history while throwing for the second-most passing yards in the nation (3,739). For example, there are only 10 passing performances of 400+ yards in Alabama history, and Jones has four of them this year, the most by any one quarterback.
