Alabama will head north next season to face one of the best programs the Big East has to offer.

According to Joel Lorenzi of The Omaha World-Herald, Creighton will host the Crimson Tide next season as part of a home-and-home series. Creighton went 24-13 this past year, making its first-ever trip to the Elite Eight before falling to San Diego State.

The Tide have faced the Bluejays just 2 other times in program history, with the last meeting coming in 2016. Creighton has won both matchups.

The Jays beat the Crimson Tide 72-54 in Omaha, Nebraska on March 14, 2016, to open play at that season’s NIT. They also won 58-57 in the first round of the 2012 NCAA Tournament.

The 2 teams have never met in the regular season.

Alabama is coming off a 31-6 season.
