Overall I think they've been pretty good and haven't seen much "in your face" to the rest of the SEC. But I do have one question before giving a final score; Are Bama fans admiting that this is NC #8 as reported by ESPN and all reasonable sources, or do they insist on this being #13. I'm very cool with any Bama fan who expresses pride in another NC and wants to blow their horn a little for NC #8 instead of the rediculous #13 NC. If Bama insists on 13 that will be another display of arrogance and telling the rest of the SEC that Bama thinks they are all stupid....

since you're a noob to the board (but as your name shows you're older and probably cool because of that) i'll make it simple for ya!

8 = number of AP recognized National Championships Alabama has.

5 = number of National Championships that Alabama has that PRE-date the AP.

Fact: There were "best" teams during the years that pre-date the AP poll. Bama was that team several times.

So, like it or not, we as a University and a fanbase have very legit claim to more than 8. Debate us on each individual year and we'll have a legit argument.
