Unfortunately for the Crimson Tide, they finished 9-3 in their first year under Kalen DeBoer after the retirement of Nick Saban, losing to Vanderbilt, Tennessee, and a shockingly bad Oklahoma team on the road.

Now, the Tide will face Michigan in the ReliaQuest Bowl game. But, the Tide have a lot to look forward to in 2025 with new talent coming in. Also, their new schedule has been released by the SEC.

On Tuesday, the conference released schedules for all teams in 2025, and the Tide have another difficult path ahead of them for next season.

Alabama will start off on the road against Florida State, before hosting Louisiana Monroe. They then will be following up with their home-and-home series against Wisconsin, which will take place in Tuscaloosa.

The Tide will begin their conference play quickly with a battle against Georgia, before they take on Vanderbilt at home, Missouri on the road and Tennessee at home in consecutive weeks. They then will hit the road and take on South Carolina.

After the second bye, the Crimson Tide will be welcoming LSU to Tuscaloosa. They then will get a chance to avenge their loss to Oklahoma before playing Eastern Illinois as a tune-up for a road game against Auburn in the Iron Bowl.

The Tide has a lot to be excited about with next season, especially with the additions of Keelon Russell at quarterback and Akylin Dear at running back, as well as the returning receiver Ryan Williams to avenge the devastating season they endured this year.
