Alabama and Tennessee will meet for the 99th time in a series that the Crimson Tide leads, 52-38-7 (53-37-8 actual). The rivalry dates back to the 1901 season, when the two teams first met in Birmingham and finished in a 6-6 tie. The Crimson Tide has won the last nine meetings and seeks its 10th straight series win for the first time since an 11-game winning streak from 1971-81. Last season, Alabama defeated the Vols, 19-14, in Tuscaloosa. The Tide and Vols have met every year since 1928, with the exception of the 1943 season when neither school fielded a football team due to World War II.
