Under Shula it was pretty bad. Most of the fan base was in denial. Bama fielded some good defenses and had some good individual players but the leadership just wasnt there. Bama fans were in love with players like Simeon Castille, Wesley Britt, and Rudy Griffin. I think it was similar to the way some Mississippi State fans are today but no one had invented grinding, and then there was/is the whole Bear/history/selfrighteousness thing.

I think one thing that made it worse was bama was in almost every game. Shula would just go into deer in headlights mode at the end of every third quarter. It got to where everyone felt if the game was close in the 4th quarter, bama had no chance of winning no matter who they were playing.
