In 88 days, Kalen DeBoer will usher in a new era of Alabama Crimson Tide football, replacing the legendary Nick Saban as head coach in Tuscaloosa.
Coach DeBoer and the Crimson Tide will take on the Western Kentucky Hilltoppers on Aug. 31 to kick off the 2024 college football season inside Bryant-Denny Stadium.
Here at Roll Tide Wire, we will be counting down the days until Alabama football takes the field.
Today, with 88 days remaining, we will take a look at one of the best players to wear No. 88 for the Crimson Tide, O.J. Howard.
Howard put together a fantastic career for Alabama collecting 114 receptions, 1,726 yards, and seven touchdowns from 2013 to 2016.
Freshman defensive lineman Isaia fa*ga currently wears No. 88 for the Crimson Tide.
