Young became the first Alabama quarterback to ever win the Heisman Trophy in 2021.
Jermaine Burton led the way with 87 yards receiving and a touchdown for Alabama. Quarterback Will Howard posted 210 yards passing but threw a pair of backbreaking interceptions. Kansas State running back Deuce Vaughn had 133 yards rushing, including an 88-yard touchdown, before going out with an apparent injury. Young's five passing touchdowns trails only former Ohio State quarterback Justin Fields for the most in Sugar Bowl history. The Crimson Tide went on a 28-3 run between the second and third quarters, and one score included a 47-yard touchdown pass from Young to Kobe Prentice with just one second remaining in the third period. The score helped key 21 unanswered points over the next three minutes of game time, including passes of 12 and 32 yards from Young. Kansas State led 10-0 early and had an opportunity to take a lead into halftime, but the Wildcats were stopped at the goal line with under a minute left in the second quarter before Young orchestrated a dynamic touchdown drive to score a touchdown with 10 seconds remaining in the period. Young threw for 321 yards and five touchdowns - an Alabama program record in a bowl game - in what will likely be his final college football game as the Tide clinched a 12th straight season with at least 11 wins under Nick Saban. 5 Alabama used a monster third-quarter effort from quarterback Bryce Young to cruise past No.
