The Surprising Strategy Behind Alabama’s Bold Kalen DeBoer Extension After a Rocky 2025 Season
On the field, DeBoer has delivered measurable progress. The Crimson Tide improved from 9–4 in 2024 to 11–4 in 2025, compiling a 20–8 record across his first two seasons at the helm. More importantly, Alabama went 7–1 in SEC play in 2025, reestablishing itself as a legitimate conference force. Wins over ranked opponents—including a stunning 24–21 victory at Georgia—signaled a program regaining its competitive edge. Yet the season’s defining moments also revealed its limitations. Alabama’s loss to Georgia—a 28–7 defeat in the SEC Championship Game—followed by a jarring 38–3 loss to Indiana in the College Football Playoff quarterfinal exposed a clear gap between contention and dominance.
