Alabama football held its 2024 team banquet on Sunday, shortly after the Crimson Tide learned it didn’t make the College Football Playoff. UA still has one more game, a ReliaQuest Bowl matchup with Michigan on Dec. 31, but still handed out its yearly awards to players on the team.
The Crimson Tide finished the regular season 9-3, capping off the season with a win over Auburn. The 2024 season is a bit different at the end, as Alabama named its permanent captains before the season started, whereas in previous seasons, those were made official at the end.
With descriptions and winners courtesy of Alabama athletics, here’s a look at who won what for the Crimson Tide this season.
