It's inevitable for Alabama fans to watch quarterback commits Paul Tyson of Hewitt-Trussville and Thompson's Taulia Tagovailoa to gauge the future quarterback battle between the two.
For now, though, both remain in high school, and they got off to strong starts to 2018, at least statistically speaking, in Week 1 of Alabama's high school football season.
On Friday, Tagovailoa threw for 385 yards and four touchdowns in a 38-7 victory over James Clemens in the AHSAA Champions Challenge at Montgomery's Cramton Bowl. He had 309 passing yards at halftime.
On Saturday, Tyson completed 31-of-47 passes for 404 yards and four touchdowns in a 34-30 loss to Cedar Grove (Ga.) in a game televised by ESPN. Tyson drove the Huskies deep into Cedar Grove territory twice in the fourth quarter, but one drive ended in a blocked field goal and his fourth-down pass in the end zone fell incomplete to end the other.
So, Tyson threw for slightly more yardage, but Tagovailoa got a victory.
