BYU emerging as a potential week one opponent for Alabama football

Thoughts surfaced on Texas Christian University (TCU) or Notre Dame facing Alabama to start week one of the college football season, but now a new team has entered the mix.

The Crimson Tide was originally scheduled to play the University of Southern California on Saturday, Sept. 5 at AT&T Stadium, but the Pac-12 decided to go to a conference-only look – which cancelled the matchup. Reports would start to swirl on the possibility of the Tide facing Notre Dame; however, athletic director Greg Byrne shot the idea down quickly.

According a new report from AL.com, Brigham Young University is the latest school entering the conversation to play the Tide.
