Alabama quarterback Jalen Milroe was the recipient of two Player of the Week awards for his performance against the Wisconsin Badgers in the Crimson Tide’s 42-10 win on Saturday.
Milroe won the Maxwell Award Player of the Week as well as the Davey O’Brien National Quarterback of the Week. He was recognized for the awards after completing 12 of 17 pass attempts for 196 yards and three touchdowns. He also added 75 rushing yards and two scores on 14 carries against the Badgers.
After three weeks of the college football season, Milroe has tallied 590 passing yards and eight scores through the air while also compiling 156 rushing yards and six touchdowns on the ground. Additionally, his 77.1 QBR ranks 28th in the nation.
In terms of Wisconsin quarterbacks, the team’s starter Tyler Van Dyke has been ruled out for the rest of the season after suffering a torn ACL in his right knee Saturday. Luke Fickell’s squad will now turn to Braedyn Locke to take over as the starter beginning with their road matchup at USC on Sept. 28.
