Heading for the NFL

Three Alabama football players head to NFL: Trent Richardson, Dont'a Hightower, and Dre Kirkpatrick.

Huge disappointment

The rematch of the century was a fizzle if you were an LSU fan.
For the past three years, an Alabama team has won the national championship.

UPDATE: This joke is circulating among Alabama fans: The LSU team has not made it back to Baton Rouge from New Orleans. Apparently, somebody painted a 50 yard line across the interstate.

Sam "Bam" Cunningham recalls the game between USC and the last all-white Alabama team in 1970 at Birmingham. He ran for 135 years and two TDs on 12 carries. USC won 42-21.

According to this story, the legend about the locker room meeting after the game is not true. Bear Bryant supposedly introduced Cunningham to his team and said, "This is what a football player looks like." Bryant was planning to bring in black players and wanted to make a point to those who would oppose the move.

I think the story is so good it has to be true, lol.
