On This Day in Crimson Tide History:

October 9, 1898: Joe Sewell was born in Titus, Ala.

October 9, 1937: A crowd of 8,000 braved rainy conditions to watch Alabama shut out South Carolina 20-0. Charley Holm led the Bama effort with 103 yards rushing on 15 carries while linemen Lew Bostick and Jim Ryba fronted the defensive charge. Scoring touchdowns were Hal Hughes, Joe Kilgrow and Buddy Beard.

October 9, 1972: "Joe Namath and His Jittery Jets" was the cover story of Sports Illustrated. "After two smashing wins, the Jets got ambushed in Houston and now must open at home against Miami, the only NFL team left unbeaten." Those who know their football history are well aware of how that game went.

October 9, 1995: Cam Robinson was born in Monroe, La.

October 9, 2010: Facing its third straight ranked SEC opponent and the first of seven straight teams coming off a bye, the reigning national champion saw its 19-game winning streak come to an end at South Carolina. Stephen Garcia threw three touchdown passes, two to Alshon Jeffery, and Marcus Lattimore scored three times as the 19th-ranked Gamecocks defeated an opponent ranked No. 1 for the first time in program history, 35-21.

Crimson Tide Quote of the Day:

"We haven't had this feeling in a long time and we don't want it again." — Alabama linebacker Dont'a Hightower after losing at South Carolina in 2010.
