Who is the best Alabama football player of all time? Vote for the champion of our bracket
We’ve reached the championship round in our bracket to determine the greatest Alabama football player of the modern era.
The last two men remaining are a Heisman Trophy winner and one of the great defensive players of any era. In the semifinals, No. 1 seed Devonta Smith beat out No. 4 John Hannah, while No. 3 Derrick Thomas won a battle of Derricks against No. 2 Derrick Henry.
So now it’s Smith vs. Thomas for the title. Do you go with the Heisman Trophy winner, two-time individual national champion and all-time leading receiver in Alabama history, or the Butkus Award winner, Pro Football Hall-of-Famer and author of perhaps the greatest individual defensive season in SEC history?
It’s on to the championship round, so be sure to vote. Here is the matchup (click the links to vote, or vote in the polls below).
