Alabama Football ticket info for the Crimson Tide

Somewhere Paul “Bear” Bryant is letting it be known: The Crimson Tide is rolling again. Alabama football tickets are in high demand across the college football nation. Led by an ultra-stingy defense, the Tide served notice to the SEC and the rest of the NCAA of their return to national prominence by posting a 10-2 record, highlighted by a rout of Florida and a thrilling, last-second victory over Texas Tech in the Cotton Bowl. The 16-13 victory, which came thanks to the foot of kicker Jamie Christensen, has fueled the fire in Tuscaloosa, making Alabama football tickets one of our best-selling tickets here at ABCTickets.com.

While expectations are soaring, the Tide does face numerous obstacles in the 2006-07 NCAA college footballs season. Head coach Mike Shula must replace quarterback Brodie Croyle and All-American linebacker DeMeco Ryans. Croyle, although often injured, capped off a stellar career in Alabama, with a tremendous – and injury-free — senior campaign. Ryans was a thorn offenses’ side all season long and will be sorely missed by the Crimson Tide faithful. But don’t think the Tide doesn’t have plenty of superstars in waiting.

Senior running back Kenneth Darby is the next in a long line of Alabama stud runners. Darby plowed his way through the SEC’s top defense for more than 1,200 yards during his junior campaign. Senior linebacker Juwan Simpson will look to fill Ryans’ big shoes. He was fourth on the team in tackles, picked off two passes and had 1.5 sacks last year.

Not only will Shula have to contend with the losses of Croyle and Ryans to the NFL, but the Tide also must contend with the brutal SEC schedule. Most of their biggest conference games are on the road. Alabama will play Arkansas, Florida, Tennessee and LSU all away from home. But in their biggest game of the season, they’ll be at home when the hated Auburn Tigers visit Tuscaloosa on Nov. 18 for the Iron Bowl.
