LAFAYETTE – Football officials from the University of Louisiana at Lafayette announced on Wednesday an agreement to a playing date against the University of Alabama for the 2018 season.
Louisiana and Alabama, a 16-time national champion and member of the Southeastern Conference, will meet on Sept. 29, 2018 at Bryant-Denny Stadium in Tuscaloosa, Ala. The meeting between the schools will be the ninth in a series (that dates back to 1941) with Alabama claiming the previous eight contests.
