It had no impact on the outcome of the game. Bama had just gotten some injured linebackers back and the defense had just given up too many yards the week before and was pissed off. The oline had also taken some heat and it was the perfect storm. Trust me, Bama did play pissed, but it was at Bama and not Vandy.

Yeah, I'm sure Saban and the players understood what was happening in that moment. Teams will typically use anything as "bulletin board" material, so they probably saw it a few times. People on the outside have definitely treated it as more than it was though.
