Alabama Crimson Tide starting quarterback Jalen Milroe spent the first three seasons of his college career playing for head coach Nick Saban.

Alabama Football: The worst four coaches of all time

Hugh Freeze still burning after Iron Bowl loss in November
The 2023 Iron Bowl is one that will go down in history with the other dramatic finishes in this rivalry. Whether you want to call it “4th-and-31,” the “Mil-throw” or the “Gravedigger,” it is certainly one that Auburn fans will not soon escape from the pain it brought them. The same can certainly be said for Tigers’ head coach Hugh Freeze, who was reminded of the pain at a speaking engagement on Tuesday.

4-star Alabama RB commit still considering Georgia
Four-star running back recruit Anthony Rogers is planning to visit the Georgia Bulldogs again. Rogers, who has been committed to the Alabama Crimson Tide since June 2023, visited Georgia this spring. “I am still committed to Alabama,” said Rogers in a recent interview with Rivals. “I am just looking at other schools to make sure I am the right fit for my future.” Rogers plays high school football for Carver High School in Montgomery, Alabama. He has previously played for IMG Academy and Pike Road High School (Alabama). Rogers is the fourth-best running back in the class of 2025, per 247Sports. The 5-foot-8, 190-pound running back is the No. 118 recruit in the country and the No. 11 player in Alabama. Rogers runs track and plays basketball. The Carver star running back has elite speed that should serve him well at the next level. Rogers is a shifty runner who is very elusive. Georgia football has 17 commitments in the class of 2025, including one from three-star Cedar Grove running back Bo Walker. Georgia typically signs two running backs per cycle, so the Bulldogs are likely looking to add another one to their haul in the 2025 cycle.

Alabama Basketball 2024-25 projected starting lineup
Alabama may or may not have the most talented team in college basketball in 2024-25, but it would be difficult to argue that Nate Oats’ roster is not the deepest. Alabama’s roster will be loaded from top to bottom with more-than-capable players this season, to say nothing of Bama’s top-end talent which includes a surefire All-American and several All-SEC candidates. When looking at the Tide’s roster, one finds a potent two-deep to rival anybody in the country. As sportswriter Aaron Torres says, Alabama is Noah’s Ark; it has two of everything.
Pivotal games for SEC football teams and spinning a successful season with no Playoff

Five others will likely concentrate on 2024 post-season success in the Playoffs. The 11 teams will need something from the 2024 season to use in claims that 2025 will bring improved results. Some of them will possibly get boosts from bowl game performances. Others will point to key wins or upsets they achieved in the regular season.
