This Week with the Crimson Tide: Football Returns to Bryant-Denny Stadium
Believe it or not, it’s October, and with the SEC football season under way we’ve gone back and made both the daily schedule and results a regular part of the daily Crimson Tide Roll Call on BamaCentral. When games are televised, we’ll make sure to list that as well.
This week some other teams are getting into the mix:
• Men’s tennis will open its fall schedule with a weekend event at Auburn along with Florida, Ole Miss and Vanderbilt
• Cross country will participate in the Florida State Invitational on Friday
• Swimming and diving opens its season by hosting Delta State on Friday
• Soccer is at Florida on Sunday, with the game on the SEC Network at 4 p.m.
The marquee event, of course the home opener in football against Texas A&M, 2:30 p.m. on CBS. It’s also the debut of renovated Bryant-Denny Stadium, although capacity will be limited to 20 percent.
