Alabama fans rejoiced when its team turned in an undefeated national championship season in 2020.
Everyone bought into the mission, and Nick Saban hoisted his seventh national title. Despite the fun it had, Crimson Tide supporters want to know if it can happen again. Alabama lost a lot of offensive production to the National Football League; however, it returns young talent.
Bryce Young, a sophomore, is the leader of the group at the quarterback position.

He watched Mac Jones conduct the huddle last season and saw action in nine games.
The Crimson Tide will depend on its defense to start the fall, but Young expects to have the offense rolling. Some media pundits think Alabama will be ‘vulnerable’ with its loss of playmakers, but Saban knows what he has.
Young, a former five-star out of California, has dealt with high expectations since high school.
He understands the mentality of the program, and he is more than capable of leading the team to an undefeated year.
The Southeastern Conference will be much improved. Last week, yours truly of Touchdown Alabama Magazine discussed Young and Alabama’s offense via In My Own Words.
Can the sophomore deliver the Tide to a second straight undefeated campaign?
This season will be exciting.
