FOX pregame show hilariously misspells ‘Alabama’ on Week 2 preview graphic

FOX will broadcast the game between Alabama and Texas in Week 2 this year. That game is one of the most highly anticipated matchups of the entire season.
FOX is understandably excited about it, but on “Big Noon Kickoff” ahead of Week 0 action between Nebraska and Northwestern in Ireland, there was an embarrassing spelling error.
As you can see below, FOX was advertising “Alabamba” vs. Texas in Week 2. The mistake was noted by people on Twitter, including the “no context college football” account:

Fortunately, FOX has 2 more weeks to get the graphic right before the crew actually heads out to Austin.
Perhaps “Alabamba” will make an appearance in the AP Poll next week, though!
Saturday was rough for ESPN’s College GameDay, too, as it mistakenly questioned whether Bryan Harsin was on the hot seat at Nebraska instead of Auburn.
