Bama never was that big???? Talk about FAKE NEWS.
Well, let's take a look at the FACTS, Moo Breath...
TEXAS
From 1893 to 1957 (Royal's first season @Texas), Cows With The Dangling Tits had a grand total of 2 seasons in which they'd won at least 10 games.
Cows had won ZERO national championships.
NEVER went to a bowl game until 1942. N-E-V-AH!! Went to 7 bowl games TOTAL up to Royal's arrival.
Royal won 2 national championships.
ALABAMA
From 1892 up to the same year Royal arrived @Texas, Alabama had 6 10-win seasons. Texas = 2
Bama had been voted #1 5 times by the time Royal came along. Texas = ZERO
Bama had been to 12 bowl games by the time Royal came along. Texas = 7
Royal and Bryant's teams met only thrice with Texas winning both...21-17, 17-13...and one tie, 3-3. Yes, Royal "owned" Bryant.
But, don't give the fake news that Bama didn't do much before Bryant came around. They did a HECK of a bunch more than Texas did.
