Both teams have inexperienced quarterbacks, with Gunner Stockton starting for Georgia and Ty Simpson likely starting for Alabama.

Alabama football will need to replace some production in the pass rush this season. The team’s two leading sack leaders, linebacker Jihaad Campbell and Que Robinson are both off to the NFL.

Alabama head coach Kalen DeBoer gave an update on the Crimson Tide's starting quarterback outlook at SEC media days.

Kalen DeBoer's message at SEC Media Days was positive, but it is clear he knows the standard he must hit at Alabama.

Alabama football never lost at home in coach Kalen DeBoer’s first season in Tuscaloosa. The same can’t be said for the road. The Crimson Tide finished 9-4 in 2024, and that includes losses to Vanderbilt, Tennessee, Oklahoma and Michigan away from Bryant-Denny Stadium. The loss to the Wolverines occurred in the ReliaQuest Bowl.

Alabama football finished just seventh in total offense in the SEC last season. Here's why Kalen DeBoer believes that will improve in 2025.

Speaking Wednesday at SEC Media Days in Atlanta, the second-year Alabama head coach addressed the Crimson Tide’s ongoing quarterback battle, offering early impressions of returning veteran Ty Simpson, as well as young talents Keelon Russell and Austin Mack.

DeBoer finished by saying all three have the potential to do big things in the Alabama offense. “I think it a lot of it has to do with what is around them, as well,” DeBoer said. Nick Kelly is an Alabama beat writer for AL.com and the Alabama Media Group. Follow him on X and Instagram.
