Alabama's Next Challenge: Why South Carolina Shouldn't Be Underestimated

Alabama's football team is not slowing down. Even after a tough stretch against top-ranked SEC opponents, they are not taking their foot off the gas. The team's coach, Kalen DeBoer, made it clear that they are not looking ahead to their upcoming bye week. Instead, they are focused on the game ahead. South Carolina might seem like an easy win on paper. They have lost four of their last five SEC games. But DeBoer knows better than to underestimate them. Last year, South Carolina started off similarly, but they ended up giving Alabama a hard time. They even finished the regular season on a six-game winning streak. DeBoer remembers how tough that game was. He knows that South Carolina's stadium will be a tough place to play. The team is ready for the challenge. They are not taking anything for granted. Alabama is ranked fourth in the country. They will face South Carolina on Saturday at 2:30 p. m. CT. The game will be broadcast on ABC. It's a chance for Alabama to prove that they can handle any challenge. It's also a chance for South Carolina to show that they are not a team to be underestimated.
