“We've been in a lot of situations where people tend to hype everything up,” senior left guard Chance Warmack said. “We try to keep a level head with everything. We look at it like another game, another opportunity to get better, another team to look up on and look at what they do.

“We don't go out and play on emotions or get too hyped up,” junior running back Eddie Lacy said. “We just go out and it's a business. It's a business trip, it's a business game so hype and emotion doesn't play into what we do.”

So, embrace the big-game atmosphere, but don’t embrace it too much?

Outside of last year’s LSU game, that’s typically what Alabama has done in recent years. And the Crimson Tide nearly beat the Tigers when it admittedly pumped itself up too much for “The Game of the Century.”
