Alabama countdown to kickoff: 6 days

In just 6 days Alabama will take the field to start the 2022 football season.

The Alabama Crimson Tide will take the field for the 2022 college football season in 6 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 6 days remaining, we will take a look at a guy who has been through a ton of adversity since he arrived in Tuscaloosa, running back [autotag]Trey Sanders[/autotag].

Sanders suffered an injury in fall camp of his freshman year which caused him to miss the entire season. Then Sanders would be involved in a serious car accident in November of 2020 which also caused him to miss the remainder of that season.

Sanders would go on to recover and play in the 2021 season where rushed for 314 yards and two touchdowns as a backup.
