The long-awaited 2021 Alabama Football season begins Saturday afternoon in Atlanta. Alabama Crimson Tide fans are excited to see the Tide’s re-staffed offense and expecting a much-improved Alabama Football defense.
The game brings to a close an impressive run of season-opener, out-of-conference games played at neutral sites. The Crimson Tide is 6-0 in Chick-fil-A Kickoff Games, and during Nick Saban’s Tide tenure, is 14-1 in Atlanta. The lone loss being the 2008 SEC Championship game.
Going back to that 2008 season, the Crimson Tide is the winningest team in the FBS; 163 victories.
