Alabama doesn't lose a lot. Alabama doesn't lose at home a lot — this was their first loss in Tuscaloosa since losing to Johnny Manziel in 2012. Alabama doesn't lose at home to Ole Miss a lot — this was their first loss to the Rebels in Tuscaloosa since 1988. 27 years ago.
Alabama fought hard against Ole Miss tonight, rallying back from 43-24 to come within one possession. They had the ball with the chance to win, but... they didn't. And Alabama's fans were displeased.
I have seen a lot of photos of sad fans in stadiums before. I have never seen any photo of sad fans in stadiums as perfect as any of these photos of sad fans in stadiums.

It's OK, Alabama fans. All of our teams lose a lot more than Alabama does, and we still find away to derive meaning from life. Hey, you can still make the playoff!
