Alabama Football Reveals TV Channel Broadcasting A-Day Game

Where can Alabama football fans catch a first look at new head coach Kalen DeBoer on the sidelines of Bryant-Denny Stadium?

The University of Alabama announced in January that its football fans will get to watch new head coach Kalen DeBoer on the Bryant-Denny Stadium sideline for the first time on Saturday, April 13, when the Crimson Tide hosts its annual A-Day game.

The A-Day game is Alabama's yearly spring scrimmage that is open to the public, and it serves as the 15th and final practice of spring football. In February, the football team announced that DeBoer's first spring scrimmage will be at 3 p.m. CT. On Monday, it was revealed that the game will be broadcast on ESPN.

Throughout his legendary tenure, newly retired Alabama head coach Nick Saban typically wore a vibrant suit for A-Day that fans often attempted to guess the color of before his first appearance. What will DeBoer wear?

Also in February, UA also announced which date on the 2024 football schedule will serve as the yearly homecoming game — the October 26 matchup with Missouri. Alabama is 88-13-1 all-time in homecoming games, and is currently on a 21-game win streak in such games.

The Crimson Tide won its 2023 homecoming game over Arkansas by a final score of 24-21.

Game time for the Crimson Tide's homecoming tilt with Missouri will be announced in the future. More information on A-Day, including additional activities, traffic and parking will be posted on rolltide.com when it becomes available.
