The 2024 college football season features numerous changes that will impact the Alabama Crimson Tide. A new coach, a new-look conference, a partially new roster and an expanded College Football Playoff field. ESPN college football analyst Paul Finebaum breaks down his thoughts on the Tide.
Finebaum explains that starting quarterback Jalen Milroe will be an asset for this team in 2024. He argues that Milroe is already considered a legitimate Heisman candidate before the season already starts. Milroe is not going to hold the team back, according to Finebaum.
Though he believes the Crimson Tide is a team that is fully capable of reaching the College Football Playoffs in the upcoming season, he believes the defensive secondary is the team’s biggest liability. Finebaum states the secondary “is too thin.”
