I think Coach Saban enjoyed this last victory a little more than most. You can see it after the Gatorade bath. He may not admit it, but the sweet satisfaction of winning a national championship this year, after being down for the count following the LSU loss last November, is pretty much the highlight of […]

I just finished reading the very first profile in “The Bama Way: Profiles of Champions” by former Alabama team captain Todd Bates. I am loving it! The first profile is about a Alabama legend that I had very little knowledge of, however many of the older generation knew him very well (even if they did […]

Posted by: | Comments (0)

After watching two weeks of college football one thing is certain: The defense that is being played out there is terrible. How do you explain scores like this over the weekend: 41-35, 45-42, 35-31.

Unfortunately, its not the 2nd straight national championship bowl game that Alabama will be playing, however they will be playing on New Year’s Day verses a very good one-loss Michigan State team.

Oh, it was indeed a scrimmage like atmosphere Thursday night as Alabama brought out the walk-ons to finish off the Georgia State Panthers 63-7. In reality, it was a mismatch of epic proportions.

Are You Rooting For Auburn Today?

Posted by: | Comments (0)

I know I am (..until after they play the Georgia game that is). Why? As unsavory as it may seem, Auburn is in fact #1 in the BCS right now. Alabama needs the farmboys to stay in the top spot to have the computer juice to get to #2 or #1 in the BCS. I […]
