The return of football for the University of Alabama starts Saturday night versus Western Kentucky.
Crimson Tide fans will pack out Bryant-Denny Stadium for the matchup to begin the Kalen DeBoer era. A former Tide standout got fans excited on Friday as he was the voice behind a video released via Alabama football on social media.

Josh Chapman, a former two-time BCS National Champion in 2009 and 2011, is the director of player development.
He was a successful defensive lineman for the Tide, but now he prepares the next wave of athletes. Chapman spoke on how Alabama let all naysayers know in 2023 — en route to a Southeastern Conference Championship and College Football Playoff berth — but the Tide is ready to LANK again. The push to return to the national title stage starts against the Hilltoppers.
