good grief. does Alabama ever play away games


Jan 1, 2020, 4:30 PM

against OOC opponents? Every time I hear an announcer give a promo about Alabama's upcoming OOC games, it's always on a neutral field somewhere.

they actually manage to play Georgia in regular season. SEC almost never lets that happen

Only play away games in New York City where all the UNY@Duke alumni live.

Kind of like Coach K at Duke. OOC games are usually always payed at Duke or a neutral site.

Believe they have played two away games in Saban’s tenure. At Duke and one other. But Duke may be the only one.

They've played very few true away games in the last 20 years, but that's going to change starting in 2022. (I looked this up a month or 2 ago when I was asking myself the same question)

22-23 - Home/Away with Texas
23 - @ USF (part of 2 for 1 deal in 22-24)
24-25 - Home/Away with Wisconsin
25-26 - Home/Away with FSU
26-27 - Home/Away with WVU
28-29 - Home/Away with Notre Dame
32-33 - Home/Away with Oklahoma
34-35 - Home/Away with VT

I'm really surprised by the years where they are playing Wisconsin and FSU in the same year, and FSU and WVU in the same year. That's a huge switch from what they've been doing. I fully expect Saban to be gone by the time this happens, but it will be interesting to follow this and see if more teams go this route. (Clemson has been doing this for years as we have SC and then schedule one OOC P5 team)
