Well, it's a road non-conference game, so..... I'd guess it won't be in November.


It'll be mid-September in 2024, so weather won't be an issue. Madison is so pleasant at that time of year.

Hell yes, I've heard good things about Camp Randall.

It is awesome in person. Went to Wisconsin (madison) for grad school, and it did not disappoint. Still crazy to me that Alabama doesn't play a true road P5 team until 2022, and will have gone an entire decade without one.

Can't guarantee you the same about Tuscaloosa that time of year

hope we can find more top tier G5 2 for 1s. Seeing USF on those 23, 24, and 26 schedules makes me much more excited than one neutral site game and three snoozefests.



Totally agree

Now add another P5 to one of the years we're not playing USF.

Wisconsin fans are awesome. Had a ton of fun pre and post games with the people tailgating around us.

Weather was great too.

Very cool! Much better than a trip to Atlanta or Dallas.

For those interested, here's an article with plenty of commentary from Barry Alvarez: LINK

Looks like LSU and Alabama have both put the neutral site thing mostly to bed for each school in the coming future. I don't think LSU has anymore schedule outside of a possible neutral/netural with Florida State that still isn't officially on the books.

ETA: Another interesting quirk, LSU and Alabama both get the home game as the second leg in every home and home they both have schedule. Why is that?

The only time I remember Alabama not hosting last in these matchups was with Penn State in 2010-11. But that was rescheduled from 2004-2005.

outside of traditional powers, Wisconsin is about as good as it gets.

Agree with you there.

Not only with LSU and Alabama, but Georgia as well. Our games with Notre Dame, Oklahoma, UCLA, FSU, and Texas all have our 2nd game with them @home. Strange, but it has to do with scheduling availability.

Alabama last visited Wisconsin in 1928. The only traditional Big Ten team Alabama has played at.

Penn State was independent for most all those matchups until the 2011 road trip (they joined the Big Ten in 1994).

All that’s missing are big ten jokes about the last time young men from Alabama were at Camp Randall (not including the 1928 game of course).
