Kalen DeBoer is under scrutiny as he takes over as Alabama’s head coach, a challenging position following Nick Saban’s long-standing success and rewarded with a lavish salary.

The season has not started well for the Crimson Tide after seven games.

On Saturday, Alabama lost to SEC rival Tennessee 24-17 at Neyland Stadium, which resulted in the team’s record falling to 5-2. They were unable to score during their last four possessions in the game.

The criticism towards Alabama was focused not only on the players but also on the coaching decisions. The team appeared disorganized, committing 15 penalties worth 115 yards, along with making puzzling choices, such as opting to go for it on fourth-and-22 from their own 18-yard line with under two minutes left in the game.

Notably, this marks Alabama’s second loss this season by game seven, which hasn’t occurred since 2007, Saban’s inaugural year as head coach during a rebuilding phase.

With high expectations riding on this match, social media erupted with comments regarding Alabama’s tough loss. Here’s a glimpse of the discussion:
