In 2006 nobody gave 2 shits about Alabama nationally they way they do with ND or USC even when those teams are bad. Get the frick over yourselves.

AGREE!!!

You know how everyone knows ND is really the only National Brand. Because they are the only school in America with their own Network Deal (NBC). And don't bring up Texas network, because that's UT building their own cable channel. I'm talking about Network , you know one of the big 4, the ones you can get over the air, the worldwide known ones. Everyone complains about the NBC deal except ND and NBC, since they keep upping it , I guess it's working. Know why? Cause ND is the only National Brand. Period!

Also as having Alumni chapters and bars to hang out in other cities , all the major colleges have that , not just UA. That does not make you a national power. Go ask FOX to only show your games , they would laugh at you. Your a regional fan base, that has a lot of front running fans today because your the best team today. Remember how many fans there were of the U and FSU in the 90s. That didn't make them national then and doesn't make you national now! Go back to the early 2000s when y'all sucked. You were not getting the 3pm game. ND gets their games shown when they want no matter the record. That means National.
