On This Day in Crimson Tide History:
August 31, 1964: Joe Namath was the center of attention during Alabama’s picture day. The 5,000 media booklets printed by the athletic department were almost sold out, and writers from around the South were picking Alabama, LSU and Auburn to battle reigning champion Ole Miss for the league title. A picture of Paul Bryant and Namath conversing on the bench was the featured photo on the media book cover. – Bryant Museum
Crimson Tide Quote of the Day:
"I'm trying to get our players to listen to me instead of you guys. All that stuff you write about how good we are? All that stuff they hear on ESPN? It's like poison. Like rat poison." – Nick Saban after Alabama’s win at Texas A&M in 2017
We'll Leave You With This...
- Three Alabama freshmen were named to the Shaun Alexander Freshman of the Year Award Watchlist: offensive lineman Kadyn Proctor, safety Caleb Downs, and running back Justice Haynes.
