A major matchup just got "huge" as Former President Trump has announced he will attend the rivalry matchup between Alabama and Georgia this Saturday in Tuscaloosa.
Crimson Tide fans are excited about the possibility of seeing the Republican presidential nominee at the game.
"I think that would be awesome," Alabama student Tommy Macrae said. "I think everyone would love to see him in the stadium, and he'll definitely have everyone fired up for the game."
Trump's Secret Service team will be on high alert after two failed assassination attempts in the recent months.
This is not the first time that Trump attended an Alabama game.
He and the First Lady attended a game against LSU when he was president.
Saturday, Sept. 28, will be Alabama's first matchup against Georgia under head coach Kalen DeBoer.
Fans are being encouraged to arrive at Byrant Denny Stadium extra early for the highly anticipated SEC game.
