Bryce Young receives Sugar Bowl curtain-call, leaves to loud ovation

Bryce Young hasn’t officially declared for the NFL Draft yet, and while other top projected picks sat out their team’s bowl game, Young decided to play.

And he was absolutely electrifying.

The Alabama quarterback completed 15-of-21 for 321 yards and 5 touchdowns against Kansas State. Yes, 6 incompletions and 5 touchdowns.

Midway through the fourth quarter with Alabama leading 45-13, Nick Saban pulled Young after the first play of the series, and the Alabama quarterback left the field to a loud ovation in the Sugar Bowl.

Young likely leaves Alabama with 80 career touchdown passes, and he’s destined to be an NFL starter. The 2021 season Heisman Trophy winner is one of the best signal callers in SEC football history.
