Meh, 2004 and 2005 were not really very competitive.
The 2005 game was over by the end of the first quarter. A TD in the final seconds was the only thing that made it look like it wasn't a blowout, but bama wasn't even close to competitive in that one.
In 2004, we scored 21 points on three straight possessions to start the second half to go up big, then bama scored a TD and got a two point conversion with a few seconds left on a hail mary throw. That one was over by mid third quarter.

2004 game was a game that at no point did anyone think Alabama would win. Spencer Pennington was miserable, we weren't great at running and though our defense gave a valiant effort you knew the dam would break eventually.
2005 game was worse than 2004. That was a beatdown.

Honk if you sacked Brodie.
