He finished in the top two for total tackles in back-to-back seasons, averaging 7+ stops per game. To’oto’o was a member of the Crimson Tide’s leadership council, helping the program to a Southeastern Conference Championship in 2021. He appeared in the 2022 College Football Playoff National Championship Game against Georgia, but To’oto’o looks forward to ending his career with a ring in the Allstate Sugar Bowl. He and Alabama will take on Kansas State on New Year’s Eve at 11 a.m. in New Orleans, La.
