ESPN released a presser on Monday with the commentary teams to open the college football season.
Alabama will start its quest as the defending national champions versus Miami on Saturday, Sept. 4.
The matchup will be at Mercedes-Benz Stadium at 2:30 p.m. CT on ABC. ESPN has assigned Sean McDonough (play-by-play analyst) and Todd Blackledge (color analyst) to the broadcast booth, while Todd McShay (field analyst) and Molly McGrath (sideline reporter) will be on the field. After having an all-conference schedule in 2020, due to COVID concerns, Nick Saban is returning to facing a marquee non-conference opponent.
