A few early enrollees were spotted on the practice field on Sunday. Notably, early enrollee wide receiver Cederian Morgan was spotted wearing No. 19 for the Tide's offense, towering over most of the players on the roster. Morgan is listed at 6-foot-4, 210 pounds.

On the injury front, Alabama looked to be as healthy as ever, with running back Kevin Riley back at practice on Sunday. Riley, a Tuscaloosa native, has missed the last three games for Alabama due to injury.

Senior defensive end LT Overton returned to his normal spot, leading the Alabama Bandit rotation. Overton missed the last two games for Alabama with an undisclosed medical issue, but was cleared to return to activity early last week. He'll make his postseason debut this season on Thursday in the Rose Bowl.

Alabama continued its usual work, with safety Bray Hubbard leading his unit through drills on Sunday.

Alabama will face top-seeded Indiana in the Rose Bowl on Thursday, January 1, 2026, in Pasadena, California. Kickoff is scheduled for 3:00 p.m. CT.
