Kirk Herbstreit correctly predicted the dynasty that Saban and Alabama were embarking on during the Clemson broadcast. It was music to my ears, since everyone else was saying that Saban would be around for just a couple of years, and that Bama would never be a serious contender again....

I also noticed that Lane took responsibility for his childishness, and that's a sign that he has grown up some. But, I will say that he still comes off as rather passive/aggressive even now.

I was also a senior. They did an all-call intercom announcement at school to share the news. That's the only time I remember news like that shared over the intercom....
