🏈 No Experience Required at Alabama

[TUSKtimes]

AN HOUR BEFORE the sidelines at the SEC championship game are lined with Southern football dignitaries. All available previous MVPs of SEC title games are here, along with current coaches of teams that didn't make the game and a pair of television news desks, one from ESPN, the other from CBS.

Retiring play-by-play man Verne Lundquist greets a receiving line of well-wishers at the CBS desk, all while sidestepping Alabama's warm-up drills. The defending national champ is preparing for a game it will win 54-16 over Florida to remain undefeated and formalize its invitation to the College Football Playoff.

"These dudes are so big it's a little scary," says former Gators QB Danny Wuerffel, extending his hand after waiting in line.

"No," Uncle Verne replies. "What's scary is that most of them are still teenagers."

That's the same way the fans feel as well. When you're part of the process it will show at the most important times.
For example, this sampling from a few weeks ago says, 'I'm all in.'
