Alabama countdown to kickoff: 26 days

We are now just 26 days away from the start of Alabama’s 2022 football season.

The Alabama Crimson Tide will take the field for the 2022 college football season in 26 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.

Unfortunately, the No. 68 hasn’t been an all too popular jersey number of choice for Alabama players. Currently, there isn’t a No. 68 on the roster. In fact, the last scholarship player to wear No. 68 was Issac Luatua from 2011-2015.

Last season walk-on offensive lineman Alajujuan Sparks Jr. wore No. 68 but is no longer listed on the updated Alabama roster.
