This Week with the Crimson Tide: Saban Bowl Edition
Alabama is back at No. 1, just in time for its annual showdown with LSU. The Crimson Tide heads to Death Valley, where it hasn’t lost since 2010 on Saturday, with a 5 p.m. kickoff on CBS.
But that’s not the only thing going on with Crimson Tide sports this week.
Men’s golf is hosting the Jerry Pate National Intercollegiate in Birmingham through Tuesday.
Soccer is at the SEC Tournament in Orange Beach beginning Friday (SEC Network).
Fresh off its win against Georgia, volleyball is hosting LSU on Saturday and Sunday.
