Fox Sports analyst says Alabama fans will become impatient with DeBoer if he loses to SEC team

Alabama football’s head coach Kalen DeBoer is approaching a possible pressure-filled spot in his second season in Tuscaloosa, according to Fox Sports analyst Joel Klatt.

Klatt believes DeBoer and the Crimson Tide’s coaching staff could be under immense pressure in 2025 if they are not victorious at home against Tennessee.

“I think that it could get a little uncomfortable for Kalen DeBoer when you look at that schedule, Tennessee at home, October 18th,” Klatt said on the “Joel Klatt Show.” “That’s the moment on the schedule.”

Klatt went on to go into detail about Alabama’s upcoming meeting with Tennessee and the possible ramifications it could have on the Tide’s upcoming season if they were to fall short.
