The first of images of Katherine Webb in the 2013 Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue are now available, giving fans a glimpse of what to expect from the rest of the magazine. Webb, a former Miss Alabama USA, gained national recognition earlier in the year when ESPN commentator Brent Musberger heaped praise on her during the BCS National Championship game when she was supporting her boyfriend, University of Alabama quarterback AJ McCarron. Webb is wearing McCarron's #10 jersey in the photos.

Webb, who attended Alabama's fierce rival, Auburn University, is also wearing football tops that feature Alabama and Auburn jerseys sown together.

Webb recently appeared on the Late Show with David Letterman alongside the rest of the SI swimsuit models to read off the night’s Top 10: "Top 10 Questions on the Application to be an SI swimsuit model."

When it came time for Webb’s question she said, “"How would Brent Musberger describe you?" —Hal Sundt
