Roll 'Bama Roll No more needs to be said.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uGHi9D8_wgs

Another battle today. All the others who win or lose don't matter. Whether we're ranked #1 or #101, all that matters is that we play with our all. We have grit. We have tenacity. We have the will to be great players and a great team, no matter what the year is. Our team believes it. Our fans believe it. We have the courage to be Alabama.

Nothing else needs to be said. Except

Roll.

Tide.

Campbell watched film of Cody's high school games and couldn't believe what he saw. Against North Fort Myers High School during his senior season, Cody grabbed tailback Noel Devine in the backfield.

"Terrence got ahold of his jersey, spun him around like a top and fell down on him," Jones said. "He came to the sideline and said, 'Coach, I made Devine throw up.' I said, 'Good for you, Terrence.'"

Roll 'Bama Roll ESPN Bowl Projections (for what it's worth)

http://sports.espn.go.com/ncf/bowlprojection?season=2008&week=3

Schlabach and Feldman have us projected to play in the Capital One or Outback bowl versus either Choke-hio-State or Wisconsin. Granted, it's ESPN, but I had a thought that playing OSU and beating them would be a wonderful statement, even if we finished 3rd or (heaven forbid) 4th in the West. I think that'd finally get that crazy idea out of everyone's head that OSU isn't anything more than a middle-of-the-pack Big Ten team.

Roll 'Bama Roll Being a part of 3rd Saturday

Well, about a month and a half back I got a job working shipping for a company that makes football gear - everything from tackling dummies and sleds to screen-printed conference vests, goal posts and pads for Football teams from HS to NFL. Today I had to practice humility, as we're doing new goalpost pads for the University of Tennessee.

It's a great job, and very cool for a football fan to be a part of, but of all the things to happen...a Bama fan displaced in Connecticut, and making stuff for the Vols!?

Somehow, some way, I've gotta sneak a Roll Tide in the packaging.
