Alabama football countdown: 62 days until kickoff

We are only 62 days from Alabama football kicking off its season against the USC Trojans at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas.

Alabama is set to kick off its season against the USC Trojans at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas, on Sept. 5. As long as COVID-19 doesn’t alter the schedule, it will be the first time the Crimson Tide has faced USC since the dominant 52-6 win back in 2016.

With it being July 5, that means we’re only 62 days away from football season officially being back!

After coming up short of making its fifth-consecutive College Football Playoff appearance, Alabama will look to bounce back in 2020 with a strong roster and returning coaching staff.

Junior offensive lineman Jackson Roby out of Huntsville High School in Alabama currently wears the No. 62 for the Crimson Tide. The player most famous for wearing the number during the Nick Saban era, however, is none other than Terrence Cody, who played for the team from 2008-09.
