Alabama Football: It could get hot this week in Destin

Many fans and certainly Alabama football fans are paying close attention to the SEC Spring Meeting. Most attention has been given to a decision on whether the SEC football schedule will go to nine games in 2024.

Nick Saban, long a proponent of a nine-game, SEC regular-season schedule might decide to support staying at eight games. Saban is concerned about a lack of equity in the designation of the three permanent opponents.

There are strong opinions on either side of the schedule issue, but it is likely a consensus can be reached. As recently as a couple of weeks ago, most believed a decision would be made this week in Destin.
