I think we win one in basketball within the next five years as well.

What does it really mean to be back?

BAMA came out of their wilderness sojourn by going to the SECCG in coach Saban's 2nd season. In year 3 we kicked the door down and not only won the SEC but bested the shorthorns for the NC. Frankly, the caliber of football we were playing, week after week, no doubt surprised no one. But that is what it means to be back for a Crimson Tider.

Meanwhile, the viles are going into year 4 of the great rebuild with the G-5 legend, Josh, "Batman" Heuple. 2-7 vs his Big 3 opponents. No division win, no SECCG, and certainly no Playoff. In year 3 the viles lost 4 games and got destroyed by lowly Missouri. But they are just as adamant they are "back."
