Five bold predictions for Alabama’s Sugar Bowl matchup against Kansas State.

Sadly enough Alabama’s 2022 football season will come to an end on Saturday afternoon at the conclusion of the Allstate Sugar Bowl.

Although the season has been a slight disappointment, [autotag]Nick Saban[/autotag] and the Crimson Tide can right the ship and end the year on a high note with a victory over the Big 12 champs, the Kansas State Wildcats.

Alabama will be challenged on both sides of the ball by a Kansas State team that plays an old-school, physical style of football which was enough to beat the playoff-bound TCU Horned Frogs.

Here are five bold predictions for the Allstate Sugar Bowl matchup between the Alabama Crimson Tide and the Kansas State Wildcats.

The top storylines to follow in the Allstate Sugar Bowl matchup between Alabama and Kansas State.

It has been a month since [autotag]Nick Saban[/autotag] and the Alabama Crimson Tide took the field against an opponent and now we are just five days away from the Allstate Sugar Bowl matchup with the Kansas State Wildcats.

Both Alabama and Kansas State enter the matchup with 10 wins on the season, except one program is having one of the best seasons in school history, while the other has the taste of disappointment.

I expect both teams to be excited to show up on Saturday and try to make a statement for both the pride of their programs and their respected conferences.

Let’s take a look at a few of the top storylines to follow this week leading up to the matchup in New Orleans.

Everything Alabama football coach Nick Saban had to say following the Crimson Tide’s first bowl practice.

Alabama fans received some exciting news on Friday afternoon with the shocking discovery that both Bryce Young and Will Anderson Jr. would not be opting out of the Allstate Sugar Bowl but would indeed be practicing with their teammates as they prepare for Kansas State.

Friday also happened to be the day that [autotag]Nick Saban[/autotag] and the Crimson Tide would hit the practice field for the first time leading up to the bowl game on Dec. 31.

Following Alabama’s practice, coach Saban would address the media and along with other things, discussed the importance of the Tide not having any opt-outs this year.

5 Wildcats Alabama fans should get to know ahead of Sugar Bowl matchup

5 Kansas State Wildcats that Alabama fans should know about.

It was announced on Sunday that the Alabama Crimson Tide would be facing the Big 12 champs, the Kansas State Wildcats in the 89th annual Allstate Sugar Bowl on Dec. 31.

While the disappointment may still be fresh on the mind of Alabama football fans about missing out on the College Football Playoffs, making it to a New Year’s six bowl game is nothing to hang your head about.

[autotag]Nick Saban[/autotag] and the Crimson Tide now have just one more opportunity to show what this version of Alabama can do on the gridiron.

Since the Wildcats are not a traditional powerhouse and it’s likely that not many Alabama fans are familiar with their roster, I thought it was a good time for Tide fans to get to know some of Kansas State’s best players.

Let’s roll!
