Who is the best Alabama player ever?
- Julio Jones WR 2008-2010.
- Ozzie Newsome TE 1974-1977.
- Derrick Henry RB 2013-2015.
- John Hannah OG 1970-1972.
- Derrick Thomas LB 1886-1988.
Many Crimson Tide historians and fans believe Henry is the greatest player in Alabama football history. There's a strong argument to be made when it comes to that competition. Henry ranks second all-time on the school's rushing list with 3,591 yards.
On Alabama's all-time sacks list, Derrick Thomas has more than twice as many as the player in second place (52 to Kindal Moorehead's 25 from 1998-2002), and he's first and second in single-season sacks with 27 in 1988 and 18 in 1987.
Gus Malzahn and Les Miles each gained three wins over Saban. Hugh Freeze won twice, in back-to-back seasons. The other 10, having beaten Saban once each, are Gene Chizik, Tommy Tuberville, Urban Meyer, Kirby Smart, Mark Richt, Ed Orgeron, Sylvester Croom Steve Spurrier, Jimbo Fisher and Kevin Sumlin.

Bryce Young led his team to a 10-2 regular season- two plays away from being 12-0 and being guaranteed another playoff appearance. On the other hand, without Bryce Young, the Alabama Football team would likely be 7-5 or worse in 2021 and 2022. It took a generational talent at quarterback to win the games he did.
He was the best in college football last season. He is the best in college football this season. Although there is some small space for debate, a legitimate claim is Bryce Young is the best Alabama Crimson Tide QB of all-time.
Not only do the Longhorns have a winning record against the Crimson Tide, they have the best record of any team that has faced Alabama more than once outside of Rice (3-0). Texas is 7-1 in the series.
Who is Alabama's oldest rival?
One of the most historic rivalries in not only the SEC, but in all of college football, the Alabama-Tennessee game has pitted the two traditional powerhouses against one another since 1901. Alabama commands a 51-38-7 all-time lead in the series.
The Crimson Tide has also had 11 undefeated seasons, a longest winning streak of 28 games between 1978 and 1980 and a home winning streak of 57 games between 1963 and 1982. Alabama leads the SEC West Division with 13 appearances in the SEC Championship Game, and has a winning record against every SEC team.
When Saban has the opportunity to get right and win the next game following a loss, he has done so. The last time Alabama lost 2 consecutive games was 2013, when they lost the Iron Bowl and then a bowl game to Oklahoma. Saban hasn't lost 2 consecutive regular-season games since his inaugural season in 2007.

Alabama linebacker Will Anderson Jr. was voted the best player in college football for the 2022 season in an ESPN survey released Wednesday.
Bryant is the leader in seasons coached and games won, with 232 victories during his 25 years with the program. Saban has the highest winning percentage of those who have coached more than one game, with . 866.
McCarron finished his college career with over 9,000 passing yards (most in Alabama history), 77 touchdowns and only 15 interceptions. He wasn't a first-round pick like Tua or Jones, and he's had the NFL career of a journeyman. It doesn't matter. McCarron is the best quarterback in Alabama history.
Most exciting for Crimson Tide fans is that eight different 2022 Alabama signees are rated as a 5-Star by one or more of the recruiting services.
