The Alabama Crimson Tide is just getting started in the Kalen DeBoer era, and things have gotten off to a smoother beginning than many anticipated in the first offseason.<\/p>\n

From a recruiting standpoint, which was the concer of many around DeBoer, the\u00a0Tide are on fire<\/a> and only continuing to rise in rankings.<\/p>\n

Nobody questioned the ability of DeBoer as a football mind given the fact that the former Washington head coach and South Dakota native has won everywhere he\u2019s been.<\/p>\n

But Fox Sports analyst Joel Klatt had a statement that will raise eyebrows throughout the South.<\/p>\n

\u201cAlabama hasn\u2019t skipped a beat without Saban. DeBoer may be an upgrade, and that\u2019s a scary thought for the rest of the country,\u201d Klatt said.<\/p>\n

He also dropped a statistic that is so ridiculous it may even be hard to believe. The Georgia Bulldogs over their last 54 games are 50-4 under Kirby Smart. During that same dominant stretch, they are 1-3 against Alabama.<\/p>\n

Surely, Kirby Smart was ready for Saban to hang it up.<\/p>\n

But by the way things are going, Kalen DeBoer may be his own kind of headache for the rest of the college football world.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
