As someone who gets to read a ton of kids books, this one might be the best. Clever and creative, I give it ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️.

Some bonus Alabama football thoughts on a quiet Saturday morning. www.al.com/alabamafootb...

"I know personally, I’m a great kicker. And I don’t care what a stat sheet says or what a piece of paper says," Alabama kicker Conor Talty said. www.al.com/alabamafootb...

Ever parented a 2-year-old? Then the 2025 Alabama football experience should bring back memories. www.al.com/alabamafootb...

What took so long? www.al.com/alabamafootb...

The guy who will probably win the Heisman tomorrow was once offered a walk-on spot at Alabama. www.al.com/alabamafootb...

A column I definitely won’t regret writing. www.al.com/alabamafootb...

That was bad. For a few reasons. www.al.com/alabamafootb...

Good work. I’m proud of you. www.al.com/alabamafootb...

A low-energy effort to arrest a Bryant-Denny field stormer summed up Alabama’s night. The job was eventually done but nobody was impressed with the process. www.al.com/alabamafootb...

Auburn failed with two straight coaching hires. It can’t afford another. www.al.com/auburn/2025/...

They said I'm too negative. My response. www.al.com/auburnfootba...

Feels good to be right for a change. www.al.com/alabamafootb...

Perhaps Auburn will one day build a statue of Hugh Freeze. If they do, it should go across the street from Jordan-Hare Stadium. Because it’s so close. www.al.com/auburnfootba...

It’s time, Auburn. www.al.com/auburnfootba...

Going through some old Alabama-Tennessee pics and found this video from 2014 with a hall of fame coach and three current head coaches of top 10 teams.

"A big night and win over [Alabama quarterback Ty Simpson's] home state Vols would be a fourth straight win over a ranked team. None of the other contenders has or will face a stretch like that," columnist @byCasagrande.bsky.social writes. "It doesn’t let up, either."

For the first time since 2001, Auburn will have just 6 home games next year. The fans deserve better than shipping home dates to Atlanta. www.al.com/auburnfootba...

Alabama couldn’t let that yapping stand from another opposing QB. It didn’t. www.al.com/alabamafootb...

"Auburn’s offense is bad," columnist @byCasagrande.bsky.social writes. "Statistically, it’s one of the worst offenses in the nation." Do you agree?

To have an offensive guru as the head coach, there's only one word to describe Auburn's offense. The numbers are stunning. www.al.com/auburnfootba...

The Tractor Trailer should be Alabama’s answer to the Tush Push. My column: www.al.com/alabamafootb...

A mother’s love and her son’s dream night. The emotional moment after Alabama’s big win at Georgia when Ty Simpson got a big hug from his mom. www.al.com/alabamafootb...

Georgia will be favored for a fifth straight time against Alabama when they meet Saturday. They are 1-3 in the first four. www.al.com/alabamafootb...

Pearl retired. Pearl hired.

"This transition was always going to require a little bit of runway," columnist @byCasagrande.bsky.social writes, "even if it’s marked by more potholes than what would have been tolerable for the previous decade and a half."

Columnist @bycasagrande.bsky.social writes that Alabama coach Kalen “DeBoer’s been a winner everywhere he’s coached. But everywhere isn’t Tuscaloosa. Straight up, he’s losing the benefit of the doubt.” Do you agree?

The rage is simmering but let's talk about the other side of this Kalen Deboer dilemma. What will it take to calm the mob? Thaw the frozen hearts? www.al.com/alabamafootb...

Why some seats revoked from longtime Alabama season ticket holders are showing up on resale sites for big markups. A deep look at the complex Tide ticket business. www.al.com/alabamafootb...

Washed.

The 247Sports talent index was released today as a temperature check of who has the best recruits on the roster.

"Auburn played its own Santa Claus ... dropping down the chimney with seven new national championships," columnist @ByCasagrande.bsky.social writes.

"It only took 12 years but the SEC finally got this one right," writes columnist @byCasagrande.bsky.social.

Auburn reminded us again today why college football the greatest by dressing up like Santa and delivering itself more national championships. A time-honored tradition. www.al.com/auburnfootba...

“Back in my day…” www.al.com/alabamafootb...

Candid talk about the difference between Saban and Kalen DeBoer from Alabama players who spanned both eras. www.al.com/alabamafootb...

Today is a big day, columnist @ByCasagrande.bsky.social writes: "We can finally talk about the actual sport of football."

"You need length and girth in this league." -- Hugh Freeze.

We’ve done enough talking for now. www.al.com/sports/2025/...

Caught my favorite country artist last night in Atlanta.

False AI-generated drivel like the posts below are produced by Facebook Groups are tricking tons of folks. Why? Columnist @ByCasagrande.bsky.social takes a look: https://www.al.com/alabamafootball/2025/06/searching-for-origin-of-fake-ai-alabama-football-facebook-posts-littering-your-feed.html 

You’ve probably seen these laughably fake AI Facebook posts that, somehow trick some people. We tried tracking down their origin and it’s nowhere near Tuscaloosa. www.al.com/alabamafootb...

The state of Kentucky has the same number of CWS teams as the SEC.

Back on the clock after parental leave. Thank you again to my employer for caring about families but it’s time to get back to business. Coverage from a crucial SEC spring meetings to some this week from Destin.

Programming note: I’ll be taking some time away after the birth of our second child so I won’t be as active on here for a bit. Our hearts are full and I’m blessed to work for a company that gives families time to bond while we grow. See you soon.

For a second straight year, Alabama ran into a blue blood brick wall. My column on the difference between really good and elite. www.al.com/alabamabaske...

Wow. www.al.com/alabamabaske...
