On This Day in Crimson Tide History:

November 11, 1892: Alabama played its first football game. E.B. Beaumont's team defeated a squad comprised of Birmingham High School students 56-0.

November 11, 1990: Derrick Thomas set an NFL record with seven sacks, which still stands, during Kansas City’s 17-16 loss to Seattle.

Crimson Tide Quote of the Day:

"We did a good job of staying together, being one and staying cool and calm. We did enough." — Jalen Hurts after his 26-yard touchdown pass to DeVonta Smith in the final seconds of a 31-24 victory at Mississippi State on this date in 2017

We'll leave you with this...

• A few years ago, Alabama soccer had never won an NCAA Tournament game. Now, the program is headed to the second round of the tournament for the third straight season.
