Is Alabama football in trouble? Well, if the ‘Drake Curse’ is real, or if you believe in that sort of thing, Nick Saban and Alabama football could be in for a tough 2022.

The Canadian rapper/singer posted to Instagram Thursday wearing a Crimson Tide shirt:

The Drake curse has been around the past few years, centered around teams Drake reps suddenly underperforming expectations. Drake has been seen supporting Kentucky basketball, Tennessee football, Conor McGregor and others.

It’s hard to imagine Nick Saban and Alabama dropping off any time soon. The Crimson Tide have been dominant to every sense of the word in the last 15 years and seem to be favorites to win another National Championship in 2022.

We’ll see if the Drake curse has another chapter in it.
