TUSCALOOSA, Ala. (AP) — Reigning Heisman Trophy winner Bryce Young passed for five first-half touchdowns and even ran for 100 yards and a score in No. 1 Alabama’s 55-0 opening victory over Utah State. The Crimson Tide began the team’s quest for national title redemption with a not unexpected start-to-finish domination of the six-touchdown underdog Aggies. Less anticipated were Young’s runs. He had a 63-yarder and also spread the ball around to Alabama’s new set of playmakers, with two touchdown passes to both Georgia transfer Jermaine Burton and Traeshon Holden and some handoffs to Jahmyr Gibbs.
