Alabama Football fans are more than hoping – they are expecting a more stingy Crimson Tide defense. Not that it was not improved last season. The 2020 Alabama Crimson Tide led the SEC allowing an average of 19.4 points per game.
In today’s explosive era of college football, the Tide’s 2020 points allowed average was good. In the minds of some Alabama football fans, 19.4 points might not be low enough in 2021. That hunch is driven by a concern the Alabama Football offense, while loaded with young talent, may not produce as many points as last season.
