We are in about 8 of them.  I lost count.  Pretty interesting read, watch out for the ads.

Thanks for this.  You must be a fan of Imus ("All time, ALL TIME.")

Well I use to recieve BR in e-mail but I got rid of it. I just couldn't think that all they wrote was correct. I was not real sure they were very productive toward Alabama. RTR!

This list is too current.  I still remember Bama's win vs. GaTech (who was in SEC then) in 1959 or 1960.  Bama was down 15 - 0 at halftime and came back to win 16 - 15 by kicking a field goal on the last play of the game.  Game was played at old Grant Field.  It was a huge comeback win for Bama at the time.

Or the 1959 Auburn game which Bama won 10 - 0.

But that's just Bama.  Lots of other 'old' games like that, I'm sure.

Thank goodness someone here remembers real football.  You young folks really missed out; the 60s were great for Alabama football.  Coach Bryant walked on water (I had a postcard showing it).  Fun times.

And the love fest on campus was especially fun.

Bobby Cannon played fullback on the Alabama Crimson Tide National Championship teams in 1964 and 1965

Wow! That is also When Chris Econonmaki called the games on TV. ABC was the only channel back then that covered games. ABC Wide World of Sports. The goal posts was right above the goalline. Jim McKay was also one of the announcers. RTR!
