Jalen Milroe, Ty Simpson and Tyler Buchner could learn a little something from the Alabama QB alums.

“It’s not about the conversation — it’s about what you do with the conversation,” Jones said. “I was focused on trying to beat Missouri. If we beat Missouri, I knew I’d get another chance to play. If you don’t beat Missouri then they might turn . So I understood what the situation was.”

There’s no bigger element to decision-making than ball security. Alabama’s offense has evolved since Saban’s arrival, and subsequently, so has the amount of responsibility and workload of the quarterbacks. But the consistent thread between each previous starting quarterback is taking care of the ball.

“The biggest thing is just that the expectation is going to be really high,” Jones said. “So you’ve got to go out there and just focus on how you can run each play effectively. I know that sounds cliché, but everyone expects you to win every game. They expect you to win the national championship, the SEC championship, and if you don’t, it’s like your season is over. I kind of learned that the hard way . And then we went all the way.“So you can’t chase it, you can’t set the bar too high.

The question for this year’s quarterbacks, like any other group, isn’t talent level but consistency. Saturday might reveal a declarative answer for Week 2 againstand beyond, but even then it’s not final. Saban has consistently emphasized that the competition will continue past naming a starter and he expects each quarterback to continue pushing to start. History has shown that quarterback situations at Alabama can be fluid.
