After coming up short in the national championship game against Georgia, Alabama Football will be favored in every game in 2022

It is tough to win back-to-back national championships. As many titles as Nick Saban has won at Alabama football, he has only won two in a row once.

Alabama Football after a loss in the national championship is usually a scary sight for the rest of college football. The Crimson Tide are going to be the heavy favorites next season and they will have the fuel of the championship game loss to think about this offseason.

It was said many times this season that this was Saban’s most flawed team and in many respects, they were right. The offensive line and running game were inconsistent in games this season and that led to Alabama playing in more close games than usual. This was a young team this season and a lot of the playmakers that had to be relied upon will be a year older.

The Heisman trophy winner Bryce Young and the best defensive player in the country, Will Anderson, are going to be back next season. Alabama made two great additions via the transfer portal in running back Jahmyr Gibbs and Eli Ricks.

Another top two recruiting class is on the way and the schedule is manageable. This team is going to be a heavy favorite at the start of the season and should be a double-digit favorite in every game. Young will be shooting for another Heisman trophy and Saban will be going for his eighth national championship.

Here are the way-too-early game-by-game predictions for Alabama Football in 2022.
