It was revealed today that Alabama football has added two new opponents to future schedules, as reported by The Tuscaloosa News’ Nick Kelly.
The Crimson Tide’s future schedules include big-time programs like Ohio State, Wisconsin, Oklahoma and others. However, today’s announcement included two under-the-radar FCS programs: Eastern Illinois and Tennessee-Martin.
Eastern Illinois will travel to Tuscaloosa late in the 2025 season and will be paid $560,000. Tennessee-Martin is scheduled for early 2028 and will be paid an even $500,000.
Both games are scheduled in seasons that already contain intriguing out-of-conference matchups for Alabama.
In 2025, the Crimson Tide will face Florida State and Wisconsin; and in 2028, Ohio State and Oklahoma State are on the schedule.
