Although this may appear to be a sign of disrespect toward the Sooners, the Tide have regularly scheduled their annual Homecoming game against SEC foes in recent years. Mizzou and Arkansas have played in Tuscaloosa on Homecoming weekend over the past couple of seasons.
It’s notable, though, that Oklahoma draws this assignment following its 24-3 upset of Alabama in Norman earlier this year. That shocking win for OU ultimately knocked Alabama out of the College Football Playoff for the 2024 season. Coach Kalen DeBoer will be looking to get Alabama back to that stage in 2025, and a bounce-back win over OU is likely a necessary step toward that goal.
Alabama has won a remarkable 21 consecutive games on Homecoming weekend, with its last such loss coming way back in 2001. The Tide are 89-13-1 all-time on Homecoming. Alabama is 2-4-1 all-time against Oklahoma.
A kickoff time and TV designation will be announced at a later date.
