A nice write up by SI - I encourage you to read the entire story. Not only should it make you proud, it will also help you answer the trivia question “What year did Alabama win two Heisman Trophies?”

Picking the Top 10 Crimson Tide Moments of 2021

Between championships, individual accolades and even the NFL draft, Alabama athletics may have had the best calendar year in school history.

quote:

But here's how good the athletic program was in 2021:

Every sport minus one made the postseason tournament to determine the NCAA champions.

Nine different teams were ranked in the top-10 at one point in their season, and six finished in the top five.

The Crimson Tide captured one national championship and four SEC titles.

How good were Alabama sports over the calendar year? The SEC titles by the gymnastics and softball teams, and the NCAA individual titles by Lexi Graber and Luisa Blanco, and Mercy Chelangat in cross country, didn't make the list.

So winning am event at world championships isn't good enough for a top 10 moment or even a random mention
