Watch Alabama Crimson Tide Football Games | Live Streaming & TV Guide

Watch Crimson Tide Games Live this Season

The University of Alabama, or "Bama" for short, has had a football team since 1892. The Crimson Tide is one of the most well known and decorated programs in NCAA history. The team has multiple national and conference championships under its belt. Bryant–Denny Stadium is Bama's home stadium, and is in the top ten of the largest non-racing stadiums in the world.

FOX Sports, ABC, CBS, NBC, SECN and ESPN all air Crimson Tide games. CBS and ESPN broadcast the majority of Alabama home games, while both networks along with ABC, CBS and NBC air away games, depending on the opponent.
