The 2000 Alabama Crimson Tide football team represented the University of Alabama in the 2000 college football season. The team was led by head coach Mike DuBose, who was coaching his final season at the program. The Crimson Tide, also know informally as the Tide, played their home games at Bryant-Denny Stadium, in Tuscaloosa, Alabama, and Legion Field, in Birmingham, Alabama.

The team entered the season trying to build upon a 10–3 record from their 1999 season, which included a 34–7 victory in the SEC Championship over the Florida Gators. The 2000 team would not have the same success, as they eventually finished with a 3–8 record (3–5 in the SEC). The 2000 season was filled with several close losses, including a 9–0 defeat at the hands of in-state rival Auburn on a cold and rainy afternoon. This game marked the first Iron Bowl played in Tuscaloosa since 1901.
