Alabama Enters Pivotal Season

Alabama head coach Kalen DeBoer is entering his third season with the Crimson Tide. DeBoer will have to decide on a starting quarterback to replace Ty Simpson, who was drafted by the Los Angeles Rams in this year’s NFL Draft.

Quarterback Decision

There is no clear indication whether Keelon Russell or Austin Mack will be the starter. In DeBoer’s first two seasons, the Crimson Tide went 9-4 and 11-4. In the 2025 season, Alabama beat Oklahoma in the first round of the playoffs before falling to eventual National Champion Indiana 38-3 in the Rose Bowl.

Action 8 Sports Analyst John Longshore believes the Crimson Tide will be a much more physical team this season. Watch the video above to hear from Coach DeBoer and from Longshore on who he thinks will be the starting quarterback.
