This Saturday, Tuscaloosa will be the buzzing spot in the state of Alabama due to the presence of some big names, including former 45th President of the United States and current presidential candidate Donald J. Trump. In addition, ESPN's highly regarded College Gameday show will be in town, setting up shop as the crew gets ready for the top-five matchup between the fourth-ranked Alabama Crimson Tide and the number-one-ranked Georgia Bulldogs at Bryant-Denny Stadium.

Donald Trump will not be the only notable visitor for Alabama fans, as the Crimson Tide has a busy recruiting weekend ahead of them, with a guest list full of highly touted recruits for the 2025, 2026, and 2027 classes.
