Bryant-Denny Stadium ranks No. 2 in EA Sports' toughest places to play

Alabama’s home-field advantage will be recognized in the new College Football 25 video game. Tuesday, EA Sports released the rankings for the “toughest places to play,” listing Bryant-Denny at No. 2 behind Texas A&M’s Kyle Field.

Alabama went 6-1 inside Bryant-Denny Stadium. During Nick Saban’s 17 seasons at the helm, the Crimson Tide posted a 103-9 record at home. The Tide is set to host Western Kentucky (Aug. 31), South Florida (Sept. 7), Georgia (Sept. 28), South Carolina (Oct.12), Missouri (Oct. 26), Mercer (Nov. 16) and Auburn (Nov. 30) this season.

While Alabama will have the advantage of playing in front of one of the nation’s top crowds, the Tide will also travel to some hostile environments this season.

Among EA Sports’ top 25 toughest places to play, Alabama is set to visit No. 3 Tiger Stadium (LSU, Nov. 9), No. 7 Camp Randall Stadium (Wisconsin, Sept. 14), No. 8 Gaylord Family Oklahoma Memorial Stadium (Oklahoma, Nov. 23) and No. 13 Neyland Stadium (Tennessee, Oct. 19).
