I remember exactly where I was when this happened. I was sitting on my couch just assuming that Alabama would win again like they almost always do. I was getting ready to just pack it.
When Davis took it to the house, I simply couldn’t start laughing. I couldn’t believe what I was witnessing. It was so damn funny.
All the shocked Alabama fans were only a bonus.
I might hate Alabama as much as the next person, but this was just a heartbreaking moment that is almost hard to comprehend. The Tide were gearing up for another national title, and the Tigers just murdered their hopes in front of the whole country. You just hate to see it!
