NCAA Battlezone

Congrats to Alabama and all Bama fans. The Tide played an incredible game and the Gators just had no answer tonight. I was hoping for a trip to Pasadena but Nawlins isn't too bad of an alternative. 😀

I have to stick up for Tebow. He's an emotional guy and he leaves it all on the field. If you saw the interviews you would have seen that he was incredibly classy about the loss and to Alabama. It is what he does. The guy has just made the entire UF athletic department better in just so many ways. He will be deeply missed.

I have to write a check to the University of Alabama this week (long story - but we made a pledge awhile back and now it is due). I am NOT looking forward to it. 😀

Go Gators! And just as importantly, go SEC! I see some clock-cleanings ahead come bowl time.

A trait you both share :wub:

I really did feel bad for him. I felt that he was emotional because he felt like he had let a bunch of people down and that's not a good feeling. The shoe could have easily been on the other foot as it has many times in the past.

I didn't get to see the season until the Auburn game, when I found a source online to watch the games. I was really surprised at how well they played, tonight. I have a feeling they took a beating over the Auburn game and had to get a gut check for this game. It seemed if everything just fell into place for them. I've watched a lot of Alabama football in my life and tonight was just one of their charmed games. They are not often, but when you see one, you know it.

My brother lives in Pennsylvania and is neighbors/friends with an Alabama native (I have no idea what his real name is but he goes by the title 'Big Bass':rolling:). Anyway, at the end of the game last night, my brother sends me a text saying Big Bass is dancing barefoot in the snow! I guess he had some of the same fuel KDW did:lol:

😀 It sure feels good to be a "Bama Girl" this morning! Well, except for a slight little headache from the "fuel". I am just so incredibly proud of how Alabama played. They came out and played their best game with very few mistakes. Texas didn't look so good against Nebraska, so we sure might have a chance for the Big One. Alabama has never beaten Texas, but I think this year might be our year! ROLL TIDE!

How funny ... my late BIL was nicknamed 'Turtle' and that is all anyone except his family ever called him. He spent, I believe, 8 years at Alabama. :lol: Turtle would have been enjoying that fuel AND dancing barefoot in the snow; somewhere I have a picture of him taking his shoes off in NYC and tiptoeing through a tulip garden. My assumption is he got a really nice view of the game last night. 😀

Do you know what Florida and Sand Castles have in common?

Hey, Darlene, maybe this year, but the Tide has only rolled over the Gators once in the past 10 years.;-):wave:

Next year is another matter 😱. I'm afraid the Gators will stink with Tebow and a bunch of others gone.:bang:

Alabama fans ... 1904 ... always living in the past, wearing the houndstooth. :roll: Bear Bryant died in 1983, ya know?

It makes me so happy that the spirit of the battlezone lives. Thanks BR and KDW:clap:

Seems just like yesterday to me. And, I am telling you if you go to Bryant Denny Stadium you can feel the Bear there. He will always be alive in me. As far as Alabama football in concerned, the past will always be a part of our future. I love my houndstooth probably as much as you love your organge fur. ;-):wave:
