Alabama football has its 2023 homecoming date set.

It's the game on Oct. 14 against Arkansas, UA announced on Twitter on Monday.

The Razorbacks haven't beaten the Crimson Tide since 2006. Arkansas also hasn't won a game in Tuscaloosa since 2003.

The matchup against the Razorbacks will be the first game at Bryant-Denny Stadium in October for the 2023 season. Alabama will kick off October with a road trip to College Station to face Texas A&M.

Coach Nick Saban is entering his 17th season at coach of the Crimson Tide. He's 194-27 (.878) at Alabama with six national championships over that span.

Alabama is aiming to return to the College Football Playoff after missing it for only the second time in 2022.
