JC Latham, a veteran offensive lineman, believes it will. The former five-star told reporters at SEC Media Days in Nashville (Tenn.) the expectation for this year’s team is going unbeaten. Latham said this team will be physical, dominant, disciplined, and focused on channeling the disrespect it has been getting into fuel. He has not captured a national championship since his arrival as a true freshman in 2021. Latham has watched Georgia win back-to-back national titles, but he knows the Tide is capable.
