62 days until Alabama football kicks off the 2024 season

We are now just Terrence Cody days away from Alabama football!

In 62 days, Kalen DeBoer will usher in a new era of Alabama Crimson Tide football, replacing the legendary [autotag]Nick Saban[/autotag] as head coach in Tuscaloosa.

Coach DeBoer and the Crimson Tide will take on the Western Kentucky Hilltoppers on Aug. 31 to kick off the 2024 college football season inside Bryant-Denny Stadium.

At Roll Tide Wire, we will count down the days until Alabama football takes the field.

Today, with just 62 days remaining, we will look at one of the most popular players of the Coach Saban era, former Alabama defensive lineman [autotag]Terrence Cody[/autotag].

Cody was a mountain of a man in the middle of Alabama’s 3-4 defense during the 2008 and 2009 seasons. He would help guide a stingy Alabama defense in 2009 and be part of coach Saban’s first national championship with the Crimson Tide.

The return of college football is quickly approaching, folks. After yet another national championship winning season, Nick Saban and company will be looking for a repeat performance in 2021.

Despite key losses, the Crimson Tide is well positioned to do just that.

The opening week matchup is against the Miami Hurricanes in Atlanta, Ga. set for Sept. 4. And with it now being July 4, we are now only 62 days away from the start of the season!

Senior walk-on offensive lineman Jackson Roby is currently wearing the No. 62 for Alabama. The 6-foot-5, 285-pound Huntsville, Ala. native has been with the Crimson Tide for several seasons now.

One of the most notable players to ever wear the number — at least during the Nick Saban era — was former nose tackle Terrence Cody, who was a key junior college transfer that helped transform Alabama’s defense into a juggernaut in 2008 and 2009.

Cody was eventually a second-round pick by the Baltimore Ravens in 2010 NFL draft, but unfortunately didn’t last in the league very long after some off the field trouble.

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.
