Schedule

 * Scoring note:

Maryville (TN)
Alabama opened the 1906 season against Maryville College at Tuscaloosa, and defeated the Maryville Scots 6–0. In the game, the lone touchdown was scored in the first quarter on a ten-yard run by P. B. Jones.

Vanderbilt
Alabama's 78–0 loss to Vanderbilt still stands as the record for most points allowed by Alabama in a game and most lopsided Alabama loss. In the game, the Commodores led 57–0 at the half, and Alabama attempted to cancel this game after seven of their regular players were sidelined by injury but Vanderbilt refused.

Auburn
Against Auburn, Pollard unveiled a "military shift" never before seen in the south. Star running back Auxford Burks scored all of the game's points in a 10–0 victory. Auburn contended Alabama player T. S. Sims was an illegal player.
