Alabama football will host the Texas A&M Aggies for homecoming during the 2026 football season.
The Tide and the Aggies will go at it on Oct. 24. This will be the first matchup between the two teams with Kalen DeBoer coaching the Tide and Mike Elko leading Texas A&M. The pair has never faced one another as head coaches.
Both teams reached the College Football Playoffs during the 2025-2026 football season. The Aggies were defeated by Miami in the first round. Alabama lost to eventual National Champions Indiana in the Rose Bowl.
It will be interesting to see how each team looks when the game rolls around in October.
