Have you ever wanted a little Orlando action with Walt Disney World and other area attractions paired with Alabama football to kick off a season? If the reports are true, you just got your wish.
According to ESPN’s Brett McMurphy, the Alabama Crimson Tide will travel to Orlando, Fl. to kick off the 2018 football season. The Tide will take on the ACC’s Louisville Cardinals in the newly renovated Citrus Bowl on September 1.
Non-conference games held at neutral sites are nothing new to Crimson Tide fans. Most fans want to see the home-and-home series with these teams but it boils down to one thing: money.
