Paul Finebaum examines if Kalen DeBoer has the championship mindset to win at Alabama (opens the original)
Read excerpt
No doubt about it. This is such a critical year for Kalen DeBoer leading the Alabama Crimson Tide. While they were able to get to the College Football Playoff, and win a first-round game nevertheless, it is all about winning SEC and national championships at Alabama. That is the standard put in place by Nick Saban, Paul "Bear" Bryant, and others. So it remains to be seen if DeBoer is up for the challenge. When asked about if national titles will define his run at Alabama, DeBoer said this at SEC
Alabama's strong receiving corps is exactly what Crimson Tide need to usher in new QB (opens the original)
Read excerpt
When assessing the Alabama Crimson Tide heading into this season, we have to look at where the strengths and weaknesses are on this roster. Alabama should have one of the better secondaries in football. On the other side of the coin, the running game could still be an issue. Is there anything to help rectify this? It will have to be the passing game, even with a new starting quarterback taking over. Fortunately for Alabama fans, the Crimson Tide have a top-10 receiving corps heading into this ye
Keelon Russell can skyrocket past these 5 overrated quarterbacks all ranked above him (opens the original)
Read excerpt
No doubt about it. The most interesting question that will surely be answered by the Alabama Crimson Tide this fall is if Keelon Russell can play or not. We know he is dripping with talent, but he must earn the starting job first. Nick Saban may have thoughts on the matter, but he is not the one making the decision. Kalen DeBoer will have to pick between Russell and Austin Mack in a few weeks. However, The Athletic's anonymous survey suggests it will be Russell over Mack. Many pundits feel the s
Nick Saban has Alabama flying under the radar, but Kalen DeBoer still has to prove it (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Pressure is all a relative construct. For a program like the Alabama Crimson Tide, it is kind of always there. For a head coach like Kalen DeBoer, it is starting to mount with each passing season on the job in Tuscaloosa. Thankfully, his predecessor, the iconic Nick Saban, put all this into perspective, one where it may not be the worst thing in the world for the Crimson Tide to be so unheralded coming in. Saban touched on why being the SEC's top banana was not always the best for his Alabama te
Nick Saban offers one major critique to Alabama's defensive scheme under Kane Wommack (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Everyone does things differently. If Alabama fans expected for the Crimson Tide defense to look the exact same with Kane Wommack running as things looked under Nick Saban, they have another thing coming. However, the iconic former head coach of the Crimson Tide had an interesting critique on the scheme Wommack is deploying at Tuscaloosa. It is working, but not to the degree that it should. Saban did not mince words when discussing their philosophical differences during SEC Media Days. "We're tal
