The popular pregame show will broadcast from Tuscaloosa ahead of the Alabama-Texas game.
As a sophomore in 1962, Namath had led the Crimson Tide to a 10-1 record, with the only loss a 7-6 setback to Georgia Tech, and set a school single-season record with 1,192 passing yards. In 1963, Alabama went 9-2, losing to Florida and Auburn by a total of six points, and Namath missed the Crimson Tide’s victory over Ole Miss in the Sugar Bowl after being suspended for violating team rules.
For his career, Namath completed 203-of-374 passes for 2,714 yards with 27 touchdowns and 19 interceptions. The quarterback left Alabama owning the school career record for touchdown passes.
