Good article about the Alabama Dynasty by a Notre Dame “subway alumni” fans

He watched Alabama beat Notre Dame in the 2012 BCS bowl and said he knew that Bama's run wasn't far from over and that as long as Saban was there they would win more championships.
You don’t have to love or like Alabama, just appreciate its run

Alabama was especially special in 2012, and you knew it that night as sure as anything. And I knew somehow, as one of the last people walking out of Sun Life Stadium in the wee hours after the Tide’s 42-14 beatdown of the Irish in the BCS championship game, that this run was far from being done. That as long as Nick Saban remained in Tuscaloosa and “The Process” kept processing and producing gems, that another title night couldn’t be far behind.
It turns out, it took three more years for Bama to churn out another championship. But save for a miracle ending at Auburn that next fall and an uncharacteristically sloppy performance in the College Football Playoff semifinals against eventual champ Ohio State last season, the Next Title Night might have come even sooner.
Quote from Kenyon Drake....

BAMA VS. THE WORLD
Alabama players don’t really care what you think of them winning all the time. They don’t.
Said Bama running back Kenyan Drake — whose 95-yard kickoff return for a touchdown not long after the onside kick was complete with a snap-shot-for-all-time lunge to the end zone that told everyone Bama just wasn’t going to be denied — of the haters:
“Honestly, if you’re not doing anything to stop us from being where we are, then I guess you’re just gonna be tired of us because that’s what we work hard for day in and day out — to win a championship and be the best,” he said. “So until we stop ourselves from accomplishing that, then I guess people are just gonna be mad that we’re winning once again.”
On Cowherd's vendetta against Alabama.....
quote:
People like radio personality Colin Cowherd, who somehow complained after Alabama’s whitewashing of Michigan State to get to Clemson that the Tide’s dominance was bad for the sport, and that Alabama was boring.
What an incredibly shallow way of looking at what Alabama has done and will probably continue to do, providing Saban doesn’t jump ship.

I talked with a Tide fan who played golf with a Notre Dame coach -- a staffer he didn't name -- a week or so after the NCG. He asked him, "When did you know the game was over?" Coach said, "After the first drive."

My favorite quote was from Urban Meyer when he was doing his year as an analyst. He said he knew it was over when he watched both teams warm up before the game.

TL;DR...csb:
I went to the 2011 Cap One Bowl with my buddy who's also a huge Bama fan. During the pregame warmups it was obvious that Bama was a whole different breed of cat than the Spartans. I looked at him and said, "We are going to annihilate them." He's always convinced that GA State or FAU will beat us so he freaked out.
We ended up going to the '12 BCSCG. During those warmups I said to him, "This reminds me of the Cap One Bowl. We're going to kill them." It was just that obvious.

The shot in the tunnel as BAMA ran by and ND waited, that's when I knew.

I love that shot. Our guys were so loose because they knew what was about to go down. The ND players were so nervous as we passed them in the tunnel.
