TUSCALOOSA, Ala. (AP) — AJ McCarron has risen to the occasion on big stages with Southeastern Conference and national titles on the line.
Now, top-ranked Alabama's quarterback steps onto one with something more personal potentially at stake, too: His Heisman Trophy chances.
McCarron can bolster his case if he leads the Crimson Tide past rival No. 4 Auburn on Saturday and looks good doing it.
The player whose gaudiest numbers are the wins and championships he has collected remains adamant that he's all about winning games, not statues. But a win would secure him an even grander showcase in the SEC championship game for another BCS title game trip.
McCarron insists the Heisman isn't on his mind.
"I ain't worried about that," he said. "If it comes, it comes. If not, I just want us to win."
