Alabama football countdown: 36 days until kickoff

We are 36 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 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 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 Aug. 21, we are officially 36 days away from the start!

After the departure of linebacker Markail Benton earlier in the offseason, the No. 36 has now been left to two walk-on players. Redshirt junior Bret Bolin, a wide receiver out of Lemont (Ill.), wears it for the offense while Jordan Parker, a sophomore defensive back from Phenix City (Ala.) wears it for the defense.
