The Alabama Crimson Tide gave the Oklahoma Sooners the biggest form of disrespect a football program can give another.

Alabama on Friday announced that it scheduled the Sooners as its opponent for the Crimson Tide's homecoming game in 2025. The Crimson Tide will host OU on Nov. 15 in Tuscaloosa.



Alabama's other home SEC opponents as options included Vanderbilt on Oct. 4, Tennessee on Oct. 18 and LSU on Nov. 8.

The Crimson Tide also have a late nonconference matchup against East Tennessee on Nov. 22, the week after they host OU, but that will likely be used as Alabama's Senior Day since it's the last home game of the regular-season.

These kind of things happen for the Sooners, though, after a 6-7 season and going 2-6 in SEC play in their first season in the conference. But maybe Alabama blocked out of its memory what happened the last time the Crimson Tide took on OU.

The Sooners dismantled Alabama 24-3 last season in Norman. The win was OU's sixth and final of the season to get the Sooners to bowl eligibility.

That outcome obviously has Bama circling the next meeting, especially since it's in Tuscaloosa next time, but to make another Blue Blood program coming to town homecoming was still astonishing.

OU leads the all-time series against the Crimson Tide, 4-1. That 24-3 beating last season was the largest margin of victory in the series. Alabama's only win against OU was a 45-34 victory in the Orange Bowl in 2018.

This will only be the Sooners' second trip to Tuscaloosa. OU beat the Crimson Tide 20-13 in their only meeting so far at Bryant-Denny Stadium in 2003. Alabama is 0-2 in Norman.

Sooner Nation had things to say about the disrespect, while Bama fans complained that it was too late to late in the season because the weather is too cold then.











 
Lol...cold and wet in mid-November in Alabama. I guess they've never been here at that time of the year. It's usually still in the 60s and 70s for the most part. And wet? Maybe...but not usually. Hell, it's been up in the 60s and 70s all the way up to and just after Christmas, here. It doesn't get actually cold until mid-late January.
Sooner nation is delusional
 
Whatever you need to motivate you! Seriously though, DeBoer didnā€™t choose the game. Also, weā€™ve had Tenn and LSWho as HC opponents in the past, so this is just some middle school bitch whining.
