🏈 GAME REVIEW: Alabama Wins Versus Tennessee

2008 Alabama Mirrors Teams of the Past.
October 26, 2008
By Terry Pellman (TerryP)

In the wake of Alabama’s 29-9 victory over the Tennessee Volunteers Saturday night it’s tempting to look back to the early 1990’s and make comparisons between this team and the teams Coach Stallings led. After all, if you want to know the last time Alabama won back-to-back games against the Vols you have to go back over 15 years.

If you do so, you’ll be making a bad comparison between ‘Bama teams of that era and this one.

Sure, the win in 1990 when Bama upset the eventual SEC Champion Tennessee in Knoxville by a score of 9-6 was the start of a winning streak. Sure, that win was followed by another, that time in Birmingham which marked back-to-back wins against our longest standing rival.

This victory by the Tide goes back to older days. Those days we talk about glowingly while rival fans accuse us of living in the past. In fact, after the victory Saturday night Alabama fans won’t be the only ones that can talk about the past.

Yet, Alabama has been twice the team on the road this season as it has been at home.

We got to fix that before the cow college comes to town. Great write up Terry.

I think the reason for this is that none of our "big games" have been at home. The Iron Bowl will be a big game for Bama because of their 6 game streak. I'm sure they want to win that game & will be pumped up for it.

We'll beat AU by four TDs, if not more! Those Burners better enjoy their "one-for-the-other-hand", "AU's-undefeatd-in-Tuscaloosa" while they can!
