The Alabama Crimson Tide are heading to the Sunshine State for a tilt with the South Florida Bulls. With a trip to the alligator capital of America coming up, they decided to change their menu to mark the occasion.
Taking to Instagram, Alabama players Jaylen Key, Ty Lockwood and Wilkin Formby revealed that the team served an entire alligator in its cafeteria last night. The photo shows an alligator carcass on a table with massive chunks of meat taken out of it.
Clearly somebody at Alabama has some experience in cooking alligator whole. That reptile looks big enough to feed an entire team.
In hindsight, maybe serving up a whole steer would have been a better choice for the Crimson Tide’s dinner. USF’s team is nicknamed the Bulls. It’s SEC rival Florida that goes by the Gators.

Alabama are looking to rebound after their stunning loss to the Texas Longhorns last weekend.
The loss was so bad that many are wondering if Alabama has the same intimidation factor that helped lead it to all of those national championships over the last 15 years.
The Crimson Tide play the Bulls at 3:30 p.m. ET on Saturday. The game will air on ABC.
