Football 🏈 Pressure not a problem for Bray Hubbard ahead of his first Alabama start

“He’s one of those guys who ticks a little differently when the time comes. You have some guys who sometimes shy away from that. He just ain’t going to do that. He has that confidence in himself to do what he needs to when his number is called.”

Football 🏈 How Alabama will handle punt return duties without Cole Adams

BIRMINGHAM, Ala. — Kalen DeBoer didn’t provide a further update on injured receiver Cole Adams during a media appearance in Birmingham on Monday. However, DeBoer did provide some insight into how Alabama will proceed in terms of punt return duties Adams absence.

Hoops 🏀 Thoughts on the Scrimmage vs Wake Forest

Alabama was down 4 players (3 likely starters) and still dominated a top 5 ACC team.

Alabama imposed their style on Wake Forest and they never looked back. Newcomers Aden Holloway, Cliff Omoruyi, Labaron Philon, and Derrion Reid all showed flashes of what they are going to bring to this year's team. I was super impressed with Aden's second half after struggling to find a rhythm in the first half. He kept shooting, and you can see why he was a former 5 star out of high school. The 3 guard lineup with him, Sears, and Philon was just unfair.

Defensively was where I was most impressed. They played an 80 possession game and they held Wake to 77 points and forced 15 turnovers. Not to mention 6 blocks. They battled on the board, even without Sherrell and Nelson and dominated the boards as well.

Obviously it was a scrimmage, but what an impressive first glimpse of this #2 preseason ranked Tide team
