1929 Alabama Crimson Tide football team

The 1929 Alabama Crimson Tide football team (variously "Alabama", "UA" or "Bama") represented the University of Alabama in the 1929 college football season. It was the Crimson Tide's 36th overall and 8th season as a member of the Southern Conference (SoCon). The team was led by head coach Wallace Wade, in his seventh year, and played their home games at Denny Stadium in Tuscaloosa, at Legion Field in Birmingham and at the Cramton Bowl in Montgomery, Alabama. They finished the season with a record of six wins and three losses (6–3 overall, 4–3 in the SoCon).

Game notes
The 1929 season opener against Mississippi College was also the inaugural of Alabama's new on-campus football stadium, Denny Stadium, replacing Denny Field and like it named for university president George Denny. In 1975 it was renamed Bryant-Denny Stadium after coach Paul "Bear" Bryant, and it is still in use as Alabama's home stadium today.

Alabama lost to Tennessee for the second straight time, falling 6–0 with a blocked punt setting up Tennessee's touchdown and Bama turning the ball over on downs twice inside the Volunteer 10. The Tide lost in a similar manner to Vanderbilt, going down 13–0 after turning the ball over on downs at the Vandy 9 and 2. Alabama held Georgia Tech to one first down in a 14–0 victory.
