Alabama’s Deontae Lawson sent a clear message to Florida State’s Tommy Castellanos on Wednesday during Day 3 of SEC Media Days in Atlanta.

Last month, the Seminoles transfer quarterback talked about his eagerness to face the Crimson Tide.

“I’m excited, man,” Castellanos said in June. “People, I don’t know if they know, but you go back and watch every first game that I played in, we always start fast.

“I dreamed of moments like this. I dreamed of playing against Alabama. They don’t have Nick Saban to save them. I just don’t see them stopping me.”

Fast forward to Wednesday, and the Alabama linebacker was asked during an appearance on “SEC This Morning” about those comments.

“It definitely ignites us a little bit,” Lawson said, per On3. “We can’t really think too much on that, because it’s just going to come down to what we do, and how we prepare that week.’

At that point, Lawson sent a simple message: “All disrespect will be addressed accordingly.”

Castellanos spent two seasons at Boston College, starting 20 games overall. He started his college career at UCF when Gus Malzahn was still the coach in Orlando. Now Malzahn is Florida State’s offensive coordinator.

The Crimson Tide will face the Seminoles at 2:30 p.m. CT on Aug. 30 at Doak Walker Stadium.
