Alabama football and coach Kalen DeBoer gets the 2024 season officially underway on Saturday, hosting Western Kentucky at Bryant-Denny Stadium. It will mark the first time in 17 years a new face will be leading the Crimson Tide after coach Nick Saban retired in January.

Reserves: Ty Simpson, Austin Mack, Dylan Lonergan
This one is kind of a a given, considering Milroe emerged as the starter last season and has continued to grow as a leader. Simpson served as Milroe’s primary backup last season, and it seems Austin Mack and Dylan Lonergan are competing for the No. 3 spot.
Running back
Starters: Jam Miller or Justice Haynes
Reserves: Richard Young, Daniel Hill, Kevin Riley
