Title: And the Oscar goes to... Pairing Top 25 teams and Best Picture winners
Post by: Terrie1959 on September 14, 2011, 07:13:11 PM
Forrest Gump? All the movies out there and we are paired with Forrest Gump?

"Forrest Gump: Gump played for the Crimson Tide from 1962-64, the first in a line of great backs that includes Major Ogilvie, Bobby Humphrey, Shaun Alexander, Mark Ingram and now Trent Richardson. Given Gump's blazing speed and slender physique, he probably would have played receiver today. In fact, a player with Gump-like speed down the sideline might be the only thing this current Crimson Tide team is missing."

Terrie, this is a bizarre list.  I'm with you; Forrest Gump?

Heck, if Coach Saban isn't a perfect fit for General Patton, there's never been a double.  How did Nebraska get Patton?

One thing right; Auburn and the Sting.  Laughing ...
