The Crimson Tide are headed out West.
While these matchups won’t be for some time, Alabama has announced a new home-and-home series against Arizona for the 2032 and 2033 seasons.
The first game of the series is scheduled for Sept. 4, 2032, in Tuscaloosa and the second game is set for Sept. 3, 2033, in Tucson.
Here’s the statement Nick Saban offered up following the official announcement of the series.
“The addition of Arizona is another example of the commitment our administration has to creating outstanding schedules for many years to come. Arizona is a tremendous football program and the opportunity to play this type of competition only makes our program stronger while providing a lot of excitement for both fan bases.”
Also well as the statement from Alabama AD Greg Byrne:
“We are excited to announce another home-and-home for our future football schedules with the addition of Arizona for the 2032 and 2033 seasons. These meetings will be the first between the Crimson Tide and Wildcats, providing our teams and our fan bases exciting new opportunities during the regular season. As I said early on, we are going to work hard at adding more home-and-homes to our non-conference schedules, and we are pleased that we’ve been able to do that, securing nine of them thus far that will begin in 2022 with Texas.”
