The Alabama Crimson Tide and the Tennessee Volunteers have played every year since 1944, and 98 times overall. Alabama leads the all-time series 53-38-7.
Tennessee had won 10 out of 12 against Alabama from 1995 to 2006. But Nick Saban took over in Tuscaloosa in 2007, and so did the Crimson Tide’s winning streak over the Vols.
The longest streak in the history of this rivalry is when Alabama won 11 straight contests from 1971 to 1981, but that will most likely change this season. The Crimson Tide currently have a 10-game winning streak in the series.
