I will never forget that Saturday against Southern Mississippi in Stallings debut in 1990. My dad and uncle were suppose to go but dad got sick and uncle took me instead. I was 15 years old and it was amazing. Bret Favre was their quarterback and we lost 27-24 to the chagrin of many, many Tide fans. I believe we started that year 0-3 even. Most of us at the time had no idea that Favre was a future hall of famer.

1999 LSU vs Bama goal line stand for the W.

I was extremely young and remember looking at the scoreboard and seeing us up with very little time left and was thinking we are about to win, but looking around at all the nervous fans had me very confused. I had no clue LSU was driving for the win at the end.

Felt like a loss because we lost a future great Bama linebacker to injury on the play that won the game. Marvin Constant was a bull. Ended his career.

Mike DuBose's first game coaching. I remember my dad and brother talking about him on the drive up but don't really remember much beyond that.

I don't remember how many were injured on the play. I just remember being sick to my stomach that Marvin sacrificed his career on the play. I think we would speak his name in the same sentence as Bennett etc. had he not got hurt.

Alabama vs Utah State in 2004. Without looking up the score, I think Alabama won like 48-17 or something like that

Constant was a headhunter and all over the field. Could have been the greatest in Bama history if he didnt hurt his knee.


He had an amazing game against Tennessee, one of the best ive ever seen.

2011 34-0 game vs Vandy for Homecoming. My first and only trip. Drove down from Bowling Green, KY that weekend. Remember one of the old timers next to me saying "sorry you couldn't see them play their best for your first game." I was like WTF, we won 34-0.

92 Sec CG. Was young but will never forget the crowd noise and my dad's awful Alabama hat with the rope across the front.

I was a walk on sophomore on that 1990 team. We did lose 3 in a row and lost 3 important skill guys as well, one in each game. Lost Siran Stacey in the opener at legion Field, followed by WR Prince Wimbley at Athens in a 17-16 game, and then lost WR Craig Sanderson at BDS against Florida in a 17-13 game. All suffered torn ACLs.

My first was October 24 against Rutgers for HC.
