    Last Call | Jake Coker Reveals What Made Nick Saban’s Alabama Dynasty Different

    Where does Jake Coker stack up among Alabama’s best single-season passing leaders — and what does that list say about the evolution of Crimson Tide football? On this episode of Last Call, the guys break down Alabama’s all-time single-season passing yard leaders, including Bryce Young, Mac Jones, Tua Tagovailoa, Ty Simpson, Blake Sims, AJ McCarron, Greg McElroy, and Jake Coker. The conversation turns into a bigger look at the Nick Saban era, Alabama’s championship standard, and why even a two-loss season felt like a disappointment under Saban. Jake Coker reflects on the 2015 national championship team, what made that group so hungry, and how Nick Saban shaped players beyond football through accountability, toughness, and leadership. The guys also discuss Derrick Henry’s dominance, Saban’s place next to Bear Bryant, and the challenge Kalen DeBoer faces as Alabama enters a new era. Plus, Coker shares stories on Byron Leftwich, Carson Palmer, the Senior Bowl, and his time in the NFL.

    TNR 5/5/26 - Hour 2 | Diego Pavia OVERSLEPT Before Playing Bama?

    Outkick founder Clay Travis joins the show! Diego Pavia admits oversleeping and missing warmups before Alabama game Does Auburn Football have a major experience problem heading into the season? The Auburn Tigers reportedly have only 115 returning snaps, and we debate whether that number is a real warning sign for Auburn or just another offseason stat that may not matter once the games begin. We also break down a huge SEC Football question: since 1977, only six teams have won the SEC Championship. Would you take those proven SEC powers — Alabama, Georgia, LSU, Florida, Auburn and Tennessee — or the field to win the conference this season?
