It wasn't supposed to happen this year. Alabama was supposed to start their season off 0-1 after meeting Clemson in the Georgia Dome. They were returning only 9 seniors, one of which was a quarterback that most people felt couldn't graduate soon enough.

What followed the 34-10 victory over Clemson has been a series of battles that have progressively made them stronger. Soldiers standing not one in front of the other, but side by side. Moving forward each week, leaving their victories behind them.

They left Atlanta that night a team that knew the worst of the fighting was still ahead of them. They said goodbye to the Georgia Dome in hopes that they would find their way back. 11 games later, the men in crimson have come home...

[QUOTE="Birmingham, post: 474795, member: 14162"] It wasn't supposed to happen this year. Alabama was supposed to start their season off 0-1 after meeting Clemson in the Georgia Dome. They were returning only 9 seniors, one of which was a quarterback that most people felt couldn't graduate soon enough. What followed the 34-10 victory over Clemson has been a series of battles that have progressively made them stronger. Soldiers standing not one in front of the other, but side by side. Moving forward each week, leaving their victories behind them. They left Atlanta that night a team that knew the worst of the fighting was still ahead of them. They said goodbye to the Georgia Dome in hopes that they would find their way back. 11 games later, the men in crimson have come home...
