Ahead of Alabama’s game against South Carolina, head coach Kalen DeBoer revealed QB Ty Simpson took a lot of personal responsibility with team meetings. He spoke up, and according to offensive lineman Kadyn Proctor, it got fiery.

“These guys are ready to go,” DeBoer said on Hey Coach and the Kalen DeBoer Show. “I don’t question that. We’ve scored early in games most of the games we’ve played – on the first drive, second drive. I really appreciate the way that they prepare and the mindset coming into the game with the confidence. It’s just keeping your edge.

“That’s what’s hard when you’re going against a great football team every single week in these opponents that are all ranked, that have great football players, that are preparing for you just like you’re preparing for them. That’s the key, is to keep that edge. And that’s what Ty’s doing a great job of making sure the offense does.”
