The Walk of Champions is running out of room for national titles.
Alabama won its 16th national championship in January, defeating Clemson 45-40 in Glendale, Ariz., and on Tuesday afternoon, the latest championship plaque was added to the Walk of Champions in front of Bryant-Denny Stadium.
Thanks to the clutch play of tight end O.J. Howard (five receptions, 208 yards, two touchdowns), placekicker Adam Griffith (33-yard field goal, onside kick) and running back Kenyan Drake (95-yard kickoff return), Alabama was able to hoist its fourth national championship trophy in seven years this past winter.
The Crimson Tide has won 16 national titles 25 Southeastern Conference championships dating back to 1925. Alabama has also won 35 bowl games in 63 appearances and had 119 players named first-team All-Americans in their careers.
Since head coach Nick Saban took over the football program in 2007, the Walk of Champions has seen four face lifts (2009, 2011-12 and today for 2015). Saban has won five championships in his career (one at LSU), trailing legendary Crimson Tide coach Paul "Bear" Bryant (6) for the most-ever in college football.

Did anyone check out Saban's statue two weeks ago? Was 2015 added to the wall?

It was added in the spring.

Have any of y'all seen the special on the 2015 NC? Saw a trailer for it, buddy told me it was awesome, and now I can't find it.

I got in on the last 20 minutes of it a couple of weeks ago, was pretty awesome.

Louisiana beat Mexico to the bank.

What channel? And it has to be on the interwebs, doesn't it?

It's called "The Process: The Story of the 2015 National Champions: Alabama Crimson Tide". It was on the SEC Network the night before we played USC. I think it's on secsports.com but I couldn't get it to work

Back in 2006 when it was built, who would've ever thought in 10 years we'd be running out of room on the Walk of Champions?

We just finished putting it in today and got all the ropes cleared.
People kept coming by asking what we'd do when we won another one... I'd just shrug and say I hope we find out.
