Alabama countdown to kickoff: 48 days

We are now just 48 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 48 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 take the field.

Today, with 48 days remaining, we will take a look at one of last season’s standout defensive players, [autotag]Phidarian Mathis[/autotag].

Mathis was a dominating defensive lineman for Alabama during the 2021 season finishing with 10.5 tackles for loss and nine sacks.

For his career, Mathis accumulated 129 total tackles, 16 tackles for loss, and 10 sacks.
