No. 11 Texas and No. 3 Alabama meet again to battle for national stakes, not SEC supremacy. For now
Texas and Alabama will someday meet as Southeastern Conference rivals bidding for league supremacy. The 11th-ranked Longhorns (1-0), who are on their last hurrah in the Big 12 Conference before joining the SEC next season, visit the No. 3 Crimson Tide (1-0) on Saturday night in a game that lacks only the league stakes. The winner enters or remains firmly in the national championship conversation.
