When the University of Alabama and Florida State meet Sept. 1, 2017 in Atlanta, it will be the latest in a series of big paydays for the Crimson Tide program.
Alabama will make $5 million for the high-profile game, according to the game contract acquired by The Tuscaloosa News.
To put that into context, UA is scheduled to profit $15.5 million for its neutral-site contest from 2015-17, games with Wisconsin, Southern California in 2015 in Texas and Florida State, respectively.
The school will be given 30,000 tickets to sell, tickets ranging from $50 for student tickets to $225 for the high-end general admission. Alabama is designated the home team.
It will be Alabama's fifth appearance in the Chick-fil-A Kickoff Game. The team played Clemson in 2008, Virginia Tech in 2009, Virginia Tech in 2013 and West Virginia in 2014.
