You're still going to win with preparation and dedication and plain old desire. If you don't have genuine desire, you won't be dedicated enough to prepare properly.

I plan on staying at Alabama for the rest of my career. I guarantee that I'll be here for you through it all, regardless of what happens.

Every time a player goes out there, at least 20 people have some amount of influence on him. His mother has more influence than anyone. I know because I played, and I loved my mama.

If we'd beaten 'em, I wouldn't be going out.

Lee Roy was the best college linebacker - bar none. He would have made every tackle on every play if they had stayed in bounds.

Hell, no! A tie is like kissing your sister!

It's nice to have the opportunity to play for so much money, but it's nicer to win it.
