:BigA:According to an 11/21/12 article in the Nashville Business Journal the University of Tennessee is cutting six million dollars in scholarships due to an athletic "budget shortfall". The article quoted the Knoxville News Sentinel. This may be old news, but I find it interesting...

Does anybody know when the Tide replays will be broadcast this year?:biga2:

That is legitimately sad. no sarcasm intended. For a tradition rich program like UT to stoop this low is really sad. I remember when people would have family fights over ownership of the tickets in Will contests and divorces. People would be on waiting lists for years hoping to get end zone...

Re: Michigan alumni is still guaranteeing a victory. BigA:My father used to tell me about some friends of his in Huntsville who would drive just across the Tennessee line and make bets with overzealous VOL fans in the 70's. That Big Orange crowd was delusional for 11 straight years.

Yes, that is one of the cowboy hats that I was talking about. It's in the same shape that mine was. Somebody should bring them back. They would make a fortune.

:BigA: Does anybody remember the red cowboy hats that a lot of the Bama fans wore back in the 70's. Most people would stick old ticket stubs in the hat band and pin buttons to side of the hat. I wore mine until it literally wore out. rtr. P. S. This is not meant to be a new "hat"...

:BigA: All the talk about Bama breaking the BCS crystal ball made me think about the Tide's Rose Bowl wins. Does Alabama have trophies from our Rose Bowl victories? What about trophies from our National titles prior to 1961? RTR

:BigA:I remember reading a few years ago about a ground breaking on a dome expansion at the BJCC. Are they actually building a dome? Is it a football stadium, or just an expansion of the convention center. Would UAB and the bowl game play there? There is a big crane at the BJCC, but I haven't...

:BigA: IMO, we need to be careful about criticizing warchicken fans for throwing toilet paper from now on. The videos of the street party in T-Town after the BCS game showed a lot of toilet paper in the University Blvd. trees. Just a thought. RTR

I still like the solid crimson cap with the Alabama A on it. The BCS logo just makes it better. RTR:BigA:

:BigA: One of the posters on this thread commented about South Alabama football being in the same category as UAB. IMO South Alabama and UAB are completely different, if for no other reason than USA is a starter program. UAB has a consistent history of not supporting football and it's obvious...

Any situation which causes Bama to play Auburn or Tennessee on a rotational basis would be unacceptable imo..

:BigA:Jeremy' I will have to disagree. Unfortunately there are many people at Bryant Denny that don't cheer. I love going to games in T-Town, but over the years BDS fans have been very passive by my observation. RTR!

Yes, Auburn should have played for the NC in 2004, but realistically they would have lost. Auburn had a strong and versitle team that year with a lot of depth. The championship game would have been a lot closer, but they still would have lost. In the long run it turned out to be the best deal...

There are a number of High School teams that wear similar uniforms to Alabama. Hartselle High ironically is called the Tigers, but their uniforms are crimson, not red, and have the same stripping and lettering. Guntersville and Deshler also have similar uniforms to Bama's.

IMO, Auburn fans would be better off worrying about and supporting their own team instead wasting their time trying to keep up with other programs. The Tigers have a decent tradition, but they are light years away from Alabama's tradition. Now that Bama is back to playing Championship caliber...

Only Alabama players will make the trip to Pasadena! No Florida, Tennessee, LSU, Georgia or Cow College players allowed !

Okay I'm confused. Is the MDB going to the BCS National Champ. game or not? Is Mobile-Alabama making a joke or is what he posted true?

Obviously, I am not trying to tell anybody on this board what to post or not post. On the other hand my opinion of Coach Shula and other issues related to the University of Alabama are just as relevant as anybody else's. I'm not trying to suppress anybody else's opinion; I am just expressing my...

Anything that happened after Coach Shula was hired is not relevant or material to a discussion related to Coach Price being forced to leave. At the time of the Coach Price nightmare we tried to hire more experienced Coaches but couldn't. We as a football program have made a series of poor...
