Alabama football countdown: 99 days until kickoff

We have finally done it. We are officially under 100 days until the Alabama Crimson Tide are back on a football field. After another national championship winning season, Nick Saban and company are looking for a repeat performance in 2021.

The opening week matchup is against the Miami Hurricanes in Atlanta, Ga. on Sept. 2. With it now being May 28, we are now 99 days away from the start!

Junior punt Ty Perine currently wears the No. 99 for the Crimson Tide. Prior to Perine, former defensive standouts Raekwon Davis and Josh Chapman wore the number.
