Michigan and Alabama are set to play in the Rose Bowl, as the matchup presents one of the most anticipated games in the College Football Playoff era. Although the game is still two weeks away, the Crimson Tide appear to be participating in some gamesmanship ahead of time.
Alabama has hired former Michigan assistant coach George Helow to a role on its coaching staff this week, The Athletic first reported. Helow spent the 2021 and ’22 seasons as Michigan’s linebackers coach, but he and the team agreed to part ways ahead of the 2023 season. He spent this year away from college football but got his start in coaching with Alabama as an intern in 2012.
