ACTION 8 PRESEASON BLITZ (WAKA) – Alabama head coach Kalen DeBoer enters his third season in Tuscaloosa, with many fans expecting him to lead the Crimson Tide past the struggles of the past two years.

Watch the video above as Action 8 Sports Analyst John Longshore breaks down Alabama’s prospects for 2026.
