Alabama, Louisville Camping World Kickoff set for primetime matchup on ABC

ORLANDO, Fla. _ The Camping World Kickoff game featuring Alabama and Louisville in Orlando on Saturday, Sept. 1, will kick off under the lights in primetime in front of a nationally-televised audience.

The second game in the neutral-site, regular-season series held at Camping World Stadium will be broadcast at 8 p.m. Eastern on ABC. Florida State and Ole Miss previously faced off in this series to open the 2016 campaign.

It's the third trip to Orlando for the defending national champion Crimson Tide, who previously played at Camping World Stadium in 2011 against Michigan State in the Capital One Bowl.

Louisville last played in Camping World Stadium in the 2016 Citrus Bowl.

The two programs have met three times previously, with the most recent matchup coming in the 1991 Fiesta Bowl.
