Alabama schedules homecoming game and will seek revenge over Oklahoma

The Alabama Crimson Tide has an opponent on the calendar for homecoming week.

According to an announcement from the program on social media, the Tide will be hosting the Oklahoma Sooners for Homecoming on November 15 at Bryant-Denny Stadium:

The start time of the game is not yet known at this point with the season still months away, but it’s safe to say revenge will be on the minds of Alabama after an embarrassing loss in Norman to the Sooners effectively ended the season in 2024. It will be the first meeting in Tuscaloosa between the two schools with Oklahoma as a member of the SEC.

Though the season as a whole was obviously not what anyone wanted in 2024, the Tide came to play one of their best games at Homecoming, destroying the Missouri Tigers by a score of 34-0.

In program history, Alabama is 89-13-1 in the Homecoming game and will look to secure their 90th victory against the Sooners.
