We are 12 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. 14, we are officially 12 days away from the start!

Newly added walk-on quarterback Logan Burnett, the grad transfer from Mississippi State and TCU, now wears the No. 12 after former Alabama wide receiver Chadarius Townsend transferred to Texas Tech.

Junior punter Skyler DeLong out of Fort Mill (S.C.) also wears it.

The number is one of the more legendary in Crimson Tide history, however, as several historically great quarterbacks such as Joe Namath, Ken Stabler and even Greg McElroy have worn it.
