Alabama Football’s three most important players for the Crimson Tide’s champion dreams in 2020

We’ve seen a lot from the major blog sites doing their different countdowns of the Alabama Crimson Tide’s “Most important” players— each with varying criteria for what is “important.” Meanwhile, NFL stats heads will tell you that, no matter the circumstance of the team or players, the QB is always the most important, followed by a pass rusher and cornerbacks.

While I don’t believe that’s quite as true in college where talent/recruiting disparity and varying schemes are factors that come more prominently into play, there’s still some truth to that. If Mac Jones has a bad season and Bryce Young isn’t ready to replace him, then Alabama will absolutely struggle.
