Who's the Most Underrated Alabama Defender on The Joe Gaither Show

Who's going to have the most challenging Rose Bowl assignments on The Joe Gaither Show | Episode 143: Dec. 22, 2023.

The No. 4 Alabama Crimson Tide is only 10 days away from kicking off the Rose Bowl against the No. 1 Michigan Wolverines. Let's talk about some aspects of the game and more on the Friday edition of "The Joe Gaither Show on BamaCentral". 

We get the show started off with recruiting as that's been the theme of the week. Alabama actually took a recruiting loss to the Auburn Tigers on Friday, but it's a long way to go in the 2025 cycle. 

The Alabama basketball program may be struggling on the court lately but the Tide got a huge win off the court. Snagging the commitment of a 5-star prospect for the 2024 cycle. 

The program continues on the basketball theme as we discuss today's media availability with head coach Nate Oats. The team is playing Eastern Kentucky tomorrow at 3 p.m. and will likely get a blowout win to get back on track. 

From Oats and hoops we move onto football as we are not far away from kicking off the College Football Playoff semifinal game.

The Michigan Wolverines have a very balanced offensive attack, but do they have enough weapons to threaten the Alabama defense? We discuss the most underrated player on this year's defensive unit as the Tide has taken quite a step forward despite losing a top five NFL draft pick in Will Anderson and several other key contributors to graduation or the draft.
