Alabama football countdown: 17 days until kickoff

We are 17 days from Alabama football kicking off its season on the road against the Missouri Tigers to start a 10-game, SEC only schedule.

There has been a lot of uncertainty surrounding college football over the last couple of months, but as of right now, the season still looks like it’s a go for the SEC, ACC and Big 12.

So, what does that mean? It means that we can continue the Countdown to Kickoff en route to the Crimson Tide — and the rest of the SEC — getting things underway on Sept. 26.

With it now being Sept. 9, we are officially 17 days away from the start!

Rising junior wide receiver Jaylen Waddle wears the No. 17 for Alabama. After being a top-notch rotational receiver and elite return man for the Crimson Tide during his first two seasons, Waddle is now expected to step into a role as one of the top receivers on the depth chart.

Many are expecting a massive breakout for the Houston (Tex.) native.
