It’s senior day at the University of Alabama, and this year’s class is going for its 60th win under head coach Nick Saban. The Crimson Tide has faced UT-Chattanooga twice under Saban, outscoring it 94-0 (2009, 2013) in both games combined. It controls its own destiny in both the Southeastern Conference and College Football Playoff, however, the Tide still needs a complete game this week to keep the playoff committee on its toes.
After handling Mississippi State, the Tide looks to polish some things up before its 81st meeting with Auburn in next week’s Iron Bowl. Per the SEC’s office, ESPN 2 will air Alabama-Chattanooga at 6:00 p.m.
