TAMPA, Fla. — Alabama football’s 2024 season is about to come to a close.
The Crimson Tide will face Michigan in the 2024 ReilaQuest Bowl in the final game of the Kalen DeBoer era, the team that beat Alabama in the College Football Playoff semifinal at the Rose Bowl in 2023 before beating DeBoer’s Washington Huskies in the CFP National Championship.
After the ReliaQuest Bowl, Alabama will turn its attention to its Aug. 30, 2025 season opener at Florida State.
Here is what you need to know ahead of the 2024 ReliaQuest Bowl.

No. 11 Alabama 35, Michigan 17: With a fully-loaded roster that includes NFL draft-eligible players like Jalen Milroe, Tyler Booker and Jihaad Campbell, Alabama has a significant advantage over Michigan, who is scrambling to fill holes left by players such as All-American cornerback Will Johnson, defensive tackle Kenneth Grant, running backs Donovan Edwards and Kalel Mullings and tight end Colston Loveland, who have each declared for the NFL draft. Alabama should get its 10th victory with relative ease.
