Updated Alabama Football 2026 Roster Tracker
The Transfer Portal Window has been up and active for a week now, and something like 30% of the entirety of college football has entered it. And why not? Even if you intend to stay, it honestly isn’t a terrible idea to jump in anyway to see if you can secure a higher payment. For […]
Postgame Thread: Alabama falls to Longhorns at home
Alabama hosted a Texas team that has lost six games against a tough slate in the early going and things didn’t go well for the home team, as the Longhorns walked out of Coleman with a 92-88 victory. Texas looked nothing like an unranked, winless in SEC play team early on. They were on fire […]
Bama Basketball Breakdown: Texas
Well, that was certainly a basketball game that was played in Nashville the other night. Or maybe it wasn’t – tweet – just got called for another foul. An epic back and forth battle between two of the early favorites to win the SEC was highjacked after halftime by the officiating crew, who apparently did […]
Jumbo Package: Alabama fans fret offensive line after portal miss
Happy Friday, everyone. The Miami Hurricanes pulled out a close one last night to advance to the national title game, and tonight Oregon will face off against Indiana in the other semifinal. Indiana feels almost inevitable, but we will see. The Alabama women’s basketball team posted a huge win yesterday, and at 16-1 looks poised […]
Jumbo Package: Alabama portal commits look to provide immediate impact
Happy Thursday, everyone. Alabama basketball lost at Vanderbilt last night, but it has to be somewhat encouraging that they pushed an undefeated team to the limit on the road despite missing two key pieces in Aidan Sherrell, who sat out the game, and Labaron Philon who missed the final 16 minutes of action. Fortunately it’s […]
Tide Falls At Vanderbilt 96-90

Postgame thread: Labaron Philon leaves game, Tide falls in Nashville
Alabama went on the road to face a tough Vanderbilt team tonight and wound up playing short-handed, resulting in the Tide’s first conference loss by a score of This one didn’t start out very well for the Tide. Vanderbilt’s home crowd offered energy and the Commodores fed off of it to jump out to a […]
Bama Basketball Breakdown: #11 Vanderbilt
Coming off of yet another spanking of the old SEC kingpin – Kentucky – in the conference opener, the 13th-ranked Crimson Tide now turn their attention to the new NIL-era powerhouse of the SEC – the #11 Vanderbilt Commodores.

Alabama QB Ty Simpson Moving On
Crimson Tide quarterback Ty Simpson has informed the Alabama coaches that he will enter the NFL Draft.

Roll Tide.” “It wasn’t all perfect and it didn’t […]

Happy Gump Day, everyone. Alabama basketball is in Nashville tonight to face unbeaten Vanderbilt. Tip-off is at 8pm CT on ESPN2, and we will have you covered on that later. Most of the current college sports news surrounds the football transfer portal, which many of you are probably tired of talking about. Still, we have […]
Random Thoughts Week 19: Blueblood Revocation
Indiana, Oregon, Miami-FL, and Ole Miss. Just like everyone predicted. Right? With one glaring exception, the lower seeds have won seven of eight games over the top 4 seeds in two years of the stupid expanded playoff. We have discussed this in previous weeks and it rang true once again for three teams this year: […]
Jumbo Package: Alabama lands star running back in the Transfer Portal
If you missed it in our roster tracker article, there were three bigger pieces of new yesterday for Alabama’s roster. First, Parker Brailsford declared for the NFL Draft: I think Brailsford should be a solid day-2 pick, and any NFL team will be happy to have him. He was a bright spot for Alabama the […]
Jumbo Package: Alabama awaits Ty Simpson NFL decision, loses OL and WR depth to portal
Happy Monday, everyone. Nate Oats’ squad opened SEC play in resounding fashion, whipping Kentucky in front of a raucous Coleman Coliseum crowd. Per usual, Nate was not shy in the postgame presser. “Kentucky’s not what everybody was hoping over there that they would be this year, but they still have a lot of talent,” Oats […]
Holloway Leads Tide Past Kentucky 89-74
The 14th ranked Alabama Crimson Tide defeated Kentucky for the fourth straight time Saturday by a score of 89-74 at Coleman Coliseum.

Victory Thread: Tide rolls over Wildcats at Coleman
Alabama’s basketball team did its level best to make Tide fans forget about the football debacle by whipping Kentucky at Coleman Coliseum today by a score of 89-74. Alabama got off to a fast start out of the gate. Kentucky came out focused on slowing early SEC Player of the Year candidate Labaron Philon, but […]
UPDATED: Alabama Football: 2026 Transfer Portal Tracker
Alabama’s season is officially over, and the transfer portal window has now opened. The window will run for two weeks – from today until January 16th – and this extended January window eliminates the spring transfer window. For this year at least… Who knows what the rules will be next year. Alabama has generally seemed […]
Bama Basketball Breakdown: Kentucky
Well, it is officially basketball season in Tuscaloosa, AL! Time to flush that Rose Bowl loss down the drain and focus on Tide Hoops! Not everyone can be a football school like Indiana, some of us have more of an affinity for the roundball. We contend for Final Fours on the hardwood around here! What […]
Jumbo Package: Kalen DeBoer talks “fine line” after Indiana domination
Happy Friday, everyone. Or, as happy as it can be around here after watching Alabama get dominated in another postseason game, the possibility of which had to be in the back of every Alabama fan’s mind. I am not going to bother writing an Initial Impressions post for that game. Here’s the impression: Alabama didn’t […]
7 “thin silver lining” charts from the Rose Bowl debacle
Well, obviously that was horrible. Similar to the the last 2024 loss to Oklahoma, then the 2025 SECCG loss, I’m not going to try to talk you out of this one. (Notably, I’m not including the the Florida State loss, which was actually closer than it looked, nor the 2018 title loss to Clemson, where […]
Postgame Thread: Listless Alabama is dismantled by Hoosiers
I got nothing. There is no shame in losing this game. But everyone in the building should be ashamed of the effort we saw today. They were listless, error prone, and proved everyone right who said they didn’t belong. There isn’t one position group that you can point to and say that they did their […]
Rose Bowl: Second Half Open Thread
Alabama’s offense decided to show up to the Rose Bowl about as lifelessly as they possibly could, scoring all of 0 points. The one time they started to put together a drive and got past mid field, Ty Simpson fumbled at the end of a nice run. Just a pathetic showing from the entire group […]

Wake Up! Orange Bowl New Year’s Day Open Thread
The first of the quarterfinal games finished up with Miami landing a resounding win over the heavily favored Ohio State last night. Who could have ever seen that one coming?? (Hint… that’s me!) But the real festivities begin today, with Oregon and Texas Tech squaring off in the Orange Bowl at 11:00 CT. Or, if […]
Why fourth-down conversions could be the key factor for Alabama at the Rose Bowl
It’s been an interesting road for the Alabama Crimson Tide, who started the season with a surprise loss to the Florida State Seminoles before rattling off eight straight wins. That included consecutive victories over Georgia, Vanderbilt, Missouri, and Tennessee, who were all top-16 teams at the time. But after that, the team saw some bumps […]
