How Alabama football does in rematches vs SEC QBs like LaNorris Sellers
What Alabama football will see Saturday night isn’t normal.
Alabama football will face an unusual situation on Saturday night when it takes on South Carolina, this being the third time the Crimson Tide have encountered Gamecocks quarterback LaNorris Sellers. Coach Kalen DeBoer reflected on the fact that he had already seen Daniels three times with three different teams, citing his familiarity with facing Sellers multiple times.
DeBoer emphasized that Sellers has become an even bigger threat each time Alabama has faced him. He praised Sellers' improvement as a passer, highlighting his knack for throwing deep balls and his increasing well-roundedness. Sellers is currently the first quarterback in DeBoer's tenure that Alabama has seen three times, and he is one of six quarterbacks with multiple starts against Alabama during the DeBoer era.
In their previous six matchups, Alabama has won four out of six games. Against these six quarterbacks, Alabama's completion percentage has averaged 65.2%, with an average of over 230 passing yards and 2.2 touchdowns. In their previous two games against Sellers, Alabama has seen him amass 460 combined passing and rushing yards, complete 65.1% of his passes, score four touchdowns, and throw two interceptions.
Looking ahead to their upcoming matchup, Alabama's defense expects a formidable challenge in store for them.
