Alabama countdown to kickoff: 35 days

We are now just 35 days away from the start of Alabama’s 2022 football season.

The Alabama Crimson Tide will take the field for the 2022 college football season in 35 days, as Utah State visits Bryant Denny Stadium on Sept. 3.

This will be Alabama’s first season-opener at home in quite some time, as the 18-time national champs are usually selected for a nationally televised kickoff game at a neutral site against a big-time opponent.

Here at Roll Tide Wire, we will be counting down the days until [autotag]Nick Saban[/autotag] and his team takes the field.

Today, with 35 days remaining we take a look at a former defensive standout for the Tide in DeMeco Ryans.

Ryans won SEC Defensive Player of the Year for his incredible season in 2005 and was recognized as a unanimous first-team All-American.
