Alabama's First SEC Road Test | Kentucky Wildcats Football News

Alabama hits the road early this season for a high-stakes SEC showdown against Kentucky, marking their first conference game in just two weeks. With new head coach Will Stein leading the Wildcats — a former Oregon OC and former Washington opponent of Alabama’s Kalen DeBoer — it’s a fresh matchup with both teams starting 1-0. The Crimson Tide, still riding momentum from their opening win, face injury concerns including the loss of key offensive lineman Michael Carroll, while Kentucky deals with multiple absences on both sides of the ball. Set for a 2:30 PM Central kickoff on ABC and Disney+, weather threats loom with possible thunderstorms. Alabama holds an eight-game winning streak in the all-time series — expect a battle between two young, hungry coaches and a pivotal early-season test.
