Alabama football countdown: 46 days until kickoff

We are back to 46 days away from Alabama’s opening kickoff on Sept. 26. The opponent hasn’t yet been determined.

There has been a lot of uncertainty surrounding college football over the last couple of weeks, 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 to 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 Aug. 11, we are officially 46 days away from the start!

Junior Melvin Billingsley, a walk-on tight end out of Opelika (Ala.), currently wears the No. 46 for Alabama. He saw his first career action against Western Carolina last season.

Former fan-favorite Michael Nysewander, a tight end and special teams standout, is another notable player who has worn the number for the Crimson Tide.
