A Winning Tradition: Alabama and South Carolina

touchdownalabama.net | 9

On Oct. 9, the Tide will march into Gamecock stadium to continue an SEC tradition. The history of Alabama and South Carolina began in

1937. These two teams battled it out on Tuscaloosa soil, where Alabama was victori-ous 20-0 in their first meeting. However, throughout the decades, South Carolina and Alabama have met on rare occasions. Although it all began 73 years ago, these two Southern entities have opposed each other less than 20 times. This year’s game will be an intense revival as both teams are in the top 20

South Carolina will be recovering from their defeat by Auburn on Sept. 25, where the Gamecocks suffered a 35-27 loss after a hard-fought battle. Alabama has maintained an unblemished record this season. They defeated the No. 7 Florida Gators 31-6 on Oct. 6. Both teams have had successful seasons thus far. Currently, South Carolina carries a 3-1 record, and the No. 19 ranking in the AP polls. The Tide continues to hold

the No. 1 spot in the country and has a 5-0 record.

Before the 2009 game, Alabama and South Carolina had not faced each other since 2005. In that game, Alabama posted a 34-17 win. Currently, Alabama holds a 12-2 record against the Gamecocks. This year’s match will surely raise to the already existing tension.

The history of these teams lies deeper than in the game itself. There are numerous relationships between the Alabama and South Carolina coaching staffs. South Carolina assistant head coach/linebackers coach Ellis Johnson coached at Alabama under Gene Stallings from 1990 to 1993, and also under Mike DuBose from 1997 to 2000. Also, Lorenzo Ward, South Carolina defensive coordinator and secondary coach, played and coached at Alabama.

Saturday’s game will be another reminder of the great tradition between these two teams. Saban’s Crimson Tide will battle it out with Spurrier’s Gamecocks in another week of SEC football at 2:30pm on CBS.

Tickets Worth More than Going to GameStudents playing it smart against the point system to get profits from tickets

For 101,821 fans, Saturday afternoons on the Quad and nights spent in Bryant-Denny Stadium are exciting, but some students have dif-

ferent viewpoints.Recently students have resorted to

selling their tickets online. Not only have students been selling online, but students have been purchasing online.

Websites like Facebook have created

a free-for-all marketplace that is open to anyone who has a ticket or anyone who wants a ticket. Members on Facebook can simply put an ad in the marketplace saying how much they are selling tickets for and wait for the offers to roll in. Anyone in the Alabama Network has easier access to tickets than members who are not. To join this network, people have to be a student, alumnus or employee of UA.

In the past four years, student tickets have gone from paper to electronic. Therefore, the selling and transferring process has become more lengthy and complicated. The last year for paper student tickets was 2007. Since then, students access their football account through their ACT (campus ID) cards. When paper tickets were used, students could simply find someone who wanted their tickets, meet and sell their ticket. There was no doubt about whether a student would transfer the ticket because it was handed over immediately.

Now that things have gone digital, there are more risks. The University has taken precau-tions in response to these risks and made several rules about the selling and distribution of tickets by students. There is a point system students have to abide by in order to continue buying tickets for following seasons. Students with more than three points on their account are banned from buying

tickets for bowl games, championship games and the next season.

Students collect these points by participating in unruly activities involving their tickets.

Students can sell their tickets to non-students, transfer to other students or donate their tickets to a student who doesn’t have one. If a student sells to a

non-student, that results in a point on the account. If a ticket is donated after 5 p.m. on the Friday before a game, the donor student is docked half a point. In other words, students can sell every single ticket they have to other students and be in the clear, but when selling to non-students or waiting until the last minute, there are repercussions.

Kanisha Clarke, 20, is a sophomore majoring in management information systems and sells her tickets via Facebook every week. She has never used them herself and doesn’t intend to anytime soon.

“I only sell on Facebook,” she said. “I only trust Facebook, especially if you’re a UA student. I had a friend who used Craig’s List and it was a scam.”

Even though she sells her tickets, she gets to enjoy the atmosphere of football because she works at Bryant-

Denny. This also contributes to her selling her tickets each game. She has been selling her tickets for two years, and she has managed to keep her sales within guidelines for future purchases.

“Before this season I never upgraded a ticket [to a student guest ticket],” she confessed. “I dislike when

people want to upgrade.”She also weighed in on

her dislike with the ticket process.

“I wish instead of them letting us sell [tickets only during] the week of the game they would let us sell them whenever we wanted to,” she said. “Other than that, it’s fine.”

On the other side of the computer are students like Justin Wheeler. He is an international studies major and he hasn’t been to a game, but not because he sells his tickets. He didn’t get tickets this season.

“I hear the band a lot on my way to my car,” he said, “but I have never seen them play.”

There are a few reasons as to why he didn’t get tickets, but he confessed he didn’t know much about the

process.“I wasn’t familiar on the procedure

of it,” Wheeler said. “I attended the last transfer orientation and they were long gone before then.”

Clarke pointed out that most of her buyers are freshmen and sophomores, who may not have had enough hours

to purchase tickets directly from the ticket office.

A problem with buying online and from other students is that it can result in price gouging. One thing Clarke and Wheeler agreed on was that the prices varied from season-to-season.

“It depends on how good the game is going to be,” Clarke said. “You base it on last year.”

While students continue to buy and sell each season, Wheeler plans on attending his first game this year and buying tickets next season. He also said he may purchase his tickets from Facebook in the future.

“I have talked with people who have regularly searched on Facebook,” Wheeler said. “If it is reasonably priced then I would buy one. If you’re going to Alabama you have to go to one game, it is part of the authentic experience. Are you going to not experience driving a car at 16? Hopefully it will be an enjoyable experience that I can spend with my friends and maybe Alabama will win.”

“The only reason you sell them is for money, period.” - Kenisha Clarke

South Carolina head coach Steve Spurrier is remembered for his Florida Gator teams, which ran the offense he called the “Fun ‘n’ Gun.” The offense put an emphasis on the passing game and scoring points in bunches.

Florida would regularly score fifty points on opponents. The offense produced Danny Wuerffel, the 1996 Heisman Trophy winner. It also spawned Spurrier’s single national championship title in 1996.

Change in CarolinaFrom Fun ‘n Gun to Ground & Pound

When South Carolina hired Spurrier, fans of the team were excited that South Carolina would soon be as explosive as mid-90’s Florida. Unfortunately, it never materialized. South Carolina has strug-gled to a lackluster 35-28 record in Spurrier’s five seasons as head coach. The Gamecocks have never posted more than 8 wins under the guidance of the Ol’ Ball Coach.

The 2010 football season brought a noticeable change to the South Carolina offense. Spurrier has scaled back the number of passes he has his quarterbacks throw.

Through the first four games of South Carolina’s season, Stephen Garcia, the Gamecock quarterback, hasn’t attempted more than 23 passes. Inserted in their place have been running plays aplenty. The running game has been featured largely because of the arrival of Marcus Lattimore.

Lattimore is a freshman running back for the Gamecocks. He hails from

Duncan, S.C., and played at powerhouse Byrnes High. Rivals.com rated Lattimore as a five-star running back and No. 10 in the country overall in the 2010 recruiting class. He chose South Carolina over Auburn, Oregon and Penn State, among others. He has made an instant impact in the South Carolina offense. He has 366 yards rushing in his first four college games, including a monstrous 37 carry, 184 yard performance against the Georgia Bulldogs. He’s averaging 4.4 yards per carry and has six touchdowns. The quality Lattimore has brought to the South Carolina running offense has allowed Spurrier to go to a ground and pound, grind-it-out style of football.

The other important part of a running game is the offensive line, and South Carolina has one of oldest ones in the SEC. Of the five starters on the offensive line, only one is an underclassman, sophomore center T.J. Johnson. The line is focused on getting physical at the point of attack. Every member of the line tips

the scales at over 300 pounds, and stands at least 6-feet-4-inches tall. Senior guard Garrett Chisolm is a massive 6-foot-6-inch beast. The sheer size of the line has allowed it to blow defensive lines off the ball to help Lattimore and the other backs rack up yards.

Auburn University did expose a weakness in Spurrier’s offense. It is very vulnerable to slanting defensive linemen. Auburn crashed its linemen to the wide side of the field, particularly in the second half, and stopped the South Carolina rushing attack. Lattimore recorded 14 carries for 33 yards in that game, for a dismal average of 2.4 yards per carry. Alabama should be able to exploit this weakness if their defensive linemen can’t hold the point of attack. Given that Alabama just brutalized an equally talented and experienced offensive line in Florida, the Gamecocks face a tough task in trying to get the Ground and Pound offense going this Saturday in Williams-Brice Stadium.

Everyone Loves aBackup

A.J. McCarron gives Tide fans an early glimpse into the future

A.J. McCarron didn’t have to wait long before Nick Saban called his number to play against San Jose State. The redshirt freshman first made waves on campus when

he wrested the backup spot from Star Jackson early in the offseason. He then went on to lead his White team to a win over Greg McElroy’s squad in the annual A-Day Spring scrimmage in April. One perfect 29-yard throw into the left hand of Julio Jones and McCarron had his first touchdown and piece of highlight footage with the Crimson Tide.

“The great offensive line gave me a tremendous amount of time to find him and he’s probably one of the best receivers in the country,” he said afterward.

A highly-touted four-star recruit from Mobile, McCarron was ranked as the No. 7 quarterback in the nation by Rivals.com in 2009, and turned down offers from Ole Miss and Miami to get a chance to play with the Tide, becoming a crucial factor in Alabama’s second consecutive recruiting title. He redshirted his first year on campus, and watched from the sidelines as McElroy led Bama to a perfect season and their 13th national title, learning from the unbeaten quarterback just what it takes to win at the college level. Next year, providing that he can beat out likely challenger Philip Sims, he’ll get his shot at taking over the 2011 squad.

“I hope to get some playing time this year,” McCarron said with a shrug, “Just whenever Coach calls on me. When I get my opportunity, I’m going to make the best of it.”

McCarron was a star at St. Paul’s Episcopal School, throwing for 2,532 yards with 26 touchdowns and only three interceptions as a junior. His impressive senior year in high school earned him an invitation to play in the U.S. Army All-American Bowl where he was one of just six quarterbacks to be invited. While coaches around the country have been fighting to take the best


dual-threat quarterbacks for their new spread offesive schemes, McCarron is known to be a pro-style pocket passer, much in the way of former Tide QB Brodie Croyle. Based on his rapid rise through the depth chart, coaches seem to be impressed so far.

“[He needs to] learn how to sit in the pocket, floats around too much into the rush sometimes but he throws it great, he’s got a good arm, he managed the game well,” said Saban on his backup quarter-back after the SJSU game. “I thought he did a really good job.”

McCarron played sparingly against San Jose State, taking snaps with the first team to gain meaningful experience with a seasoned offense. But there seemed to be some indication that Saban would use both quarterbacks at some point, as he switched the two in and out throughout the first half of play. It hasn’t been seen yet, but if this is a trick the legendary coach has up his sleeve, fans have to be feeling great about McCarron’s ability to throw the ball. Against San Jose State, he was 9-of-15 for 116 yards and a dramatic score to Julio Jones, flashing the pass efficiency he was known for in high school. In mop-up duty against severely overmatched Duke, McCarron did considerably less, throwing just six passes and serving as a game-manager to wind down the clock and bring the game to a close. Every bit of experience is vital, however, as the starter to succeed McElroy in 2011 will have a mountain of pressure on his shoulders, no matter the Tide record at the end of the year.

Nick Saban doesn’t display the quarterback benching tendencies of South Carolina’s Steve Spurrier, especially when Greg McElroy has yet to be defeated as a starter, but there appears to be little drop-off in the way of talent between the two. With another year of experience under the belt of A.J. McCarron, the redshirt freshman should have no problem in solidifying himself as another of Alabama’s greats.

Marcus Lattimore - TB

Alshon Jeffery - WR

Marcus Lattimore became an overnight sensation when his SEC debut against Georgia thrust the true freshman into the spotlight. The Bulldog

defense could only shake their heads in frustration as the high school phenom rushed for 182 yards on 37 carries. The fans chanted his name, eager to heap praise on Steve Spurrier’s new recruit, who had been ranked as the No. 1 running back in the nation by Rivals.com in 2009. It seemed that South Carolina had at last found the running game it had been missing throughout Spurrier’s tenure as the Gamecocks rolled to a 17-6 victory.

“Obviously Marcus is a very, very good running back,” Spurrier said in the press conference afterward. “He can hit a crack, he can break tackles, he holds on to the ball.”

Though Lattimore was able to slice through Georgia’s 3-4 defense, he was held in check the next week by the Auburn Tigers, who held Lattimore to just 33 yards on 14 carries and a touchdown. South Carolina was unable to establish the run, and the Gamecocks would go on to lose that game 27-35, suffering their first loss of the season.

Lattimore will hope to rebound when top-ranked Alabama visits Williams-Brice Stadium on October 9. The Tide has not allowed a 100-yard rusher in two seasons, and has had the fewest points scored against them of all teams in the FBS.

When the South Carolina passing game begins to click, it is Alshon Jeffery who gives it spark. The sophomore has been a staple in the Gamecocks’

passing attack and has over 100 receiving yards in three games so far this season to give the inconsistent QB Stephen Garcia a go-to receiver. Jeffery received a National Wide Receiver of the Week award following his 192-yard effort against Auburn on September 25. Though the effort was a losing one, it displayed the receiver’s big play potential, much in the style of Alabama’s Julio Jones.

However, a pass meant for Jeffery deflected off of his fingertips and landed in the hands of Auburn’s Desomond Washington in the end zone. That interception would seal the game for Auburn, and tarnish the phenomenal effort put forth by the Gamecocks’ primary receiver. Of Garcia’s three touch-down passes in that game, Jeffery caught two.

The sophomore sensation will receive a break after the heart-breaking loss at Jordan-Hare. South Carolina, like liter-ally half of the teams in the SEC, has a bye week before they face Alabama this season. Jeffery will likely be matched up with Dre Kirkpatrick, who has been effective in shutting down wideouts since his opening game debut for the Tide.

Recruit of the Week

There is one thing for certain that Russellville coach Doug Goodwin can rely on when things

may not be going his way or he needs someone to make a play on offense or defense, and that is 6-foot-1, 212-pound Brent Calloway.

Rival’s top-ranked prospect out of the state of Alabama has been known to play linebacker on defense and even carry the ball as a running back. Through four games this year, Calloway has 725 yards; 199 of those yards came in one game. His lowest rushing output was a measly 146.

“Athletically, he's as good as

any player I've had," Goodwin told the Birmingham News. "He's tall, with long limbs. He runs extremely fast. And he can jump like a kangaroo.”

Calloway was one of the first to commit to the Tide in this class on the simple fact that the Tide was the first school to show interest and the first to offer him a scholarship. But that has not stopped programs like Southern Cal, Auburn and Tennessee from trying to sway Calloway towards their programs. Calloway, however, seems solid for the Crimson Tide.

Calloway has a scholarship offer to play running back at Auburn, while teams like

Alabama and Southern Cal feel Calloway fits more into their defensive scheme.

“Auburn coaches told me they think he's the best running back in the country," Goodwin said. "Alabama and USC like him at outside linebacker. There are a lot of schools who wouldn't care where he plays. They're recruiting him as an athlete.”

"Truthfully, he could play any skill position, except, maybe, quarterback,” he mused.

“I really don't care where I play. I don't care if I'm getting hit or doing the hitting," Calloway said. "But they're a little thin at outside linebacker [at Alabama]. If I'm ready, I'll get to play early."

The Lowdown

Last Saturday night, I heard something that was only surpassed by the low fly-over of jet fighters: the sound of a sta-dium with over 101,000 people, mostly Alabama fans, screaming at a level

never before heard in Bryant-Denny Stadium.The fans were in a frenzy, not just because of

what the game would mean to Alabama on a national scale, not for what it meant to the Tide in the SEC race and not because it was the first night game at home so far this year, but because it was their job to be.

No coach has ever so cajoled and complimented a home crowd before. Nick Saban has told the fans

Girls and Boys, Let’s Make Some Noise!Fans play a crucial role in winning and recruiting

that this is their job, but it is a labor of love.With the last end zone now closed in with a new upper

deck this summer, the noise level at Tuscaloosa has never been higher, the enthusiasm never at such a fever pitch and the expectations never as high as this year.

The new addition added about 10,000 more seats. If it had added 20,000 the stadium would have been just as full, but it might not have been any noisier.

From the press box, mid height up, center of the field, the noise, at times, got so loud that reporters could not hear the person next them, even if he was raising his voice. The press box is always full of quiet people.

Some stadiums have done noise level surveys, but none have been scientifically done at Bryant-Denny.

And while it’s hard to personally attend every stadium, Gary Danielson of CBS Sports said he can’t remember one any louder, and he has heard hundreds of college and pro stadiums.

Talking to the players after the game, they said they feed on the noise and the fans become the 12th man on the field.

Nick Saban, who usually acknowledges his thanks to fans with a wave to the stands, said last week in his post

game press conference that he was pleased with the crowd’s participation and the noise the fans exhibited.

He has said many times just how important that fan participation is to the team, but what he hasn’t said so much publicly is what that noise means to the visiting recruits who come to see the Tide play.

Even if they’re not Alabama fans coming in, the noise and crowd participation just sucks them in and makes them a part of that crowd. They can imagine all that noise being made for them.

Therein is the great advantage of all this noise. It is one more thing “participating” in the winning of the games here. Opponents no longer have to just beat the Crimson Tide, a task daunting in itself, but have to beat the very vocal fans as well.

They no longer have to recruit against Nick Saban and the Alabama brand, they have to recruit against those fans as well.

To Nick Saban and the staff and players of Alabama, it’s not noise, it’s music, it’s victories, it’s great future players and it’s an identity that intimidates opponents and it makes a perfect team mate.

Johnny Musso Was In the HouseThe Italian Stallion revisited Bryant-Denny for the win over Florida

Johnny Musso, an All-American running back at Alabama in 1971, attended the Crimson Tide’s game against Florida this year. He thor-

oughly enjoyed watching his Alma Mater rout the Gators, 31-6. He also enjoyed watching Heisman Trophy winner Mark Ingram tote the football.

“He’s fun to watch, and I love how he carries the No. 22 jersey,” Musso stated in reference to the number he also wore as a record-setting halfback in Bear Bryant’s wishbone offense. “He’s got it all: great desire, great talent and he runs with a lot of heart. And he’s a real team player.

“Alabama has always been about the team. It has never been about the individual. Mark and Trent (Richardson) both pull for each other and help each other and they put the team first.”

Nicknamed “the Italian Stallion” a few years before Sylvester Stallone made the moniker famous in his original Rocky movie in 1976, Musso, looking trim and fit, thinks the No. 1-ranked Crimson Tide is even getting better. “Our defense really came alive,” he said of Bama holding Florida without a touchdown. “Our defense really attacked their offense and put a lot of pressure on their quarterback. They improved a lot since last week.”

Musso also likes the direction in which the football program is going. “Alabama has got a real football coach. He’s the real deal,” he stated in reference to head coach Nick Saban. “Alabama and Nick Saban are a great match. The team is a lot of fun to watch. This is a great win for them.”

college career rushed for 2,741 yards and 34 touchdowns, the latter a record that stood for 16 years. He caught 61 passes for 495 yards and four touchdowns, and passed five times for 88 yards and two more touchdowns. Altogether the 5-11, 200-pound Musso amassed 3,328 yards of total offense and scored 40 touchdowns while playing for Alabama.

As a senior, Musso rushed for 1,088 yards en route to winning All-American honors in 1971, when he finished fourth in the Heisman Trophy voting. In the 1970 Iron Bowl game, Musso rushed for 221 yards against Auburn.

A National Football Foundation Scholar-Athlete, Musso earned a post-graduate scholarship. Musso was inducted into the Alabama Sports Hall of Fame in 1989 and into the College Football Hall of Fame in 2000. He was named to the Alabama All-Century Team in 1992.

Musso played professionally in the Canadian Football League from 1972 through 1974 with the British Columbia Lions, and then played in the NFL with the Chicago Bears from 1975 through 1977. With the Bears he carried the ball 100 times for 365 yards and six touchdowns. He also caught seven passes for 39 yards, and averaged 16.9 yards on seven kick-off returns. He also played briefly with his hometown Birmingham Vulcans of the World Football League.

A long-time resident of Chicago, Musso has two sons, Brian and Scott, who played for Northwestern. Johnny Musso, “the Italian Stallion,” remains one of the most popular players to have played for the Crimson Tide.

Roman Harper is a per-fect example of consis-tent athletic excellence in the NFL. After grad-uating from the

University of Alabama, Harper signed with the New Orleans Saints in 2006. Though he was only able to play the first five games in his rookie year due to a torn ligament, he has managed to start in all 52 games he was able to play in throughout his career.

So far, Harper has recorded 327 tackles, 4 interceptions and, oddly enough, 1 touchdown. In fact, he has been ranked in the top 20 of all professional defensive backs in every complete season since he first signed in 2006. Last season was his

most successful year, as he posted 102 tackles, 1.5 sacks, and 2 forced fumbles. In just his fourth year with the Saints, Harper not only got to play in, but also managed to help his team trounce the Colts, at Super Bowl XLIV. That season, he was also elected to play in the Pro Bowl, though he was unable to play since the Pro Bowl and Super Bowl were so close together.

Harper’s solid performance began in high school where he played quarterback, safety and returner. In high school, he was a first team all-state performer and also played in the Alabama-Mississippi All Star Game. Harper continued to play at the University of Alabama, where he finished his career as a three-year starter and ranked sixth in Crimson Tide history with 302 tackles, 5 interceptions, 5 forced fumbles and 3.5 sacks. He really started showing what he could do his sophomore year, when he managed 114 tackles. He was later a second team All-Southeastern Conference selection as a junior and a first team All-Southeastern Conference selection as a senior.

So far, Harper has had a decent start for the 2010 season. He has already attained 19 tackles and 1 interception. He is currently ranked 22nd of all professional defensive backs in the country. Though he has

started out successfully, his greatest obstacle at this point is most likely his hamstring, which has kept him from practice and might keep him out of a game or two.

Despite his success in high school, college and professional football, Roman Harper has not let it

go to his head. After the 49ers game in week 2, he told Kara Henderson of the NFL Network: “We’re just going to have to find a way to win. Nobody said it was going to be easy. We’re Super Bowl Champions, but we need to get fighting, keep grinding, and keep going.”

Former Tide Star Still a StandoutAt the University of Alabama, Harper finished his career as a three-year starter and ranked sixth in Crimson Tide history with 302 tackles, 5 interceptions, 5 forced fumbles and 3.5 sacks.

My First Game

There is a first time for everything. Most people remember their first bike ride, their first love, their first day of high school and their first day of

college, but in the lives of Alabama fans there is one more day that will never be forgotten: their first Crimson Tide football experience.

For Laketa Frost, it is no different. She is a native of Pisgah, Ala., and experienced her first game during the Ray Perkins era. Alabama was playing LSU and took the win from the Tigers.

“We were sitting in the N Section, about 40 rows up,” Frost said. “It was just amazing. All I had been to were high school games. We beat them like a drum.”

Although she loved everything about her gameday experience, her favorite part was the band. She has ever since had a special place in her heart for the Million Dollar Band and the halftime performance.

“I had been in band [in high school],” she said. “I had come to hear the band in concert before. I like halftime.”

Style at the stadium varies, but there are a few things Frost will not be caught without: her pompoms, her Alabama T-shirt and her Alabama jewelry.

She has two daughters who attended the University, and she elaborated on how different the atmosphere, fans and stadium are in her children’s era from her first visit.

“The crowds are much larger, it’s more intense and they take it serious,” she said.

Throughout all her seasons of visiting the Capstone and watching the Tide play, she does have a favorite coach: Gene Stallings.

“He is a good person,” Frost said. “He tried

to help the students because of his son. He did a lot of things for the University. He got out with the people and he did a cookbook. He had a signing and I still have my cookbook. All the money he gave to the RISE Program.”

Her father was always a Bama fan, but it was when she was in junior high school that Frost started following football. Since that time, her favorite player has been Joe Namath.

“I followed him through the Super Bowl,” she said. “I just always liked him.” Even though it has been a few seasons since she has been to a game, she enjoys tailgating at home with her family and watching the big games. When she does come to the games, she enjoys walking around campus and visiting Denny Chimes, and she appreciates the statues at the entrance to the stadium.

Although she has been to many games and experienced many thrilling wins, Frost has experienced defeats also. Her favorite game of the season is the Auburn game, and she confessed the worst feeling in the world was “losing games and having to walk out of that stadium a loser.”

Like most Tide fans, she sports her crimson attire every crisp fall Saturday afternoon and cheers for the team she first saw so long ago.

Tailgater of the Week

Tailgating in the South, especially in Tuscaloosa, means food, football and fun. For Becky Stallworth it all happens on Saturday afternoons with her friends.

Whether she is on the Quad, at her normal tailgate sopt in front of Carmichael Hall or in Bryant-Denny Stadium, fun and friends fill Stallworth’s fall afternoons.

Stallworth is a graduate student earning her education specialist degree. Like most Tide fans, she can’t stay in a particular spot for long, or she will miss out on all the friendly fun happening in other spots.

“I have friends who tailgate,” Stallworth said, and she likes just “hanging with friends.” She hasn’t missed a home game since she got to the Capstone in 2003.

Football weekends have a unique feel and also unique smells. The smell of barbecue lingering around the campus is one of Stallworth’s favorite things about the football weekends.

“I like the barbecue sandwiches and hotdogs,” she confessed.

Although some fans may declare a mudslide on the field to be a fun football game, she said that that is one of the only downsides to football. She is not a fan of muggy afternoons following a rainstorm.

“I hate when it rains,” she said. “When everyone gets wet and then it gets hot and they sweat. I don’t like being around a lot of people then.”

While most Bama fans enjoy every game, there is always one that makes the top of the list, and for Stallworth that game is LSU.

“I just like the atmosphere, the fans and the way the colors mesh,” she admitted.

She is especially looking forward to the LSU weekend this year. She has never been to Baton Rouge, La., and can’t wait until she gets to experience the game on their turf. Stallworth intends to keep her tradition alive and attend every game until she graduates.

What a Game!

Traditions

Though the main focus every game day Saturday is on Bryant-Denny Stadium, thousands of dedicated Alabama fans can be found on the Quad, between Denny Chimes

and Gorgas Library. Though Amelia Gayle Gorgas Library was built in 1939, its history stretches back to the Civil War.

Back in the mid-Nineteenth century, the University of Alabama was a military school. In fact, the 8th president and librarian was Confederate General Josiah Gorgas. Back then, the university library, like Gorgas Library now, was on the Quad. Every day, you could walk in and see the postmistress and librarian, Amelia Gayle Gorgas, General Gorgas’ wife, running the place. During the Civil War, though, the university library was burned by a federal raiding party.

Once the war had ended, Tuscaloosa and the University, like the rest of the south, had to undergo a restoration. Obviously, the University pulled through, and in 1925 a new library was built to honor Amelia Gayle Gorgas, who had died a little over a decade earlier.

In the next several years, the University saw a period of growth and, despite the Great Depression, was able to build another new library on the Quad to keep up with the growing student population. It was named Amelia Gorgas Library and the previous library was renamed Carmichael Hall.

Gorgas Library is a main focal point on campus. For students, regardless of major, Gorgas Library is the place to go to study. For alumni, it’s a monument to the University’s history and commitment to academic excellence. For the rest of Alabama football fandom, it’s the beautiful neoclassical building that stands tall on the Quad and represents all that the University has to offer: pride, dignity, wisdom and intelligence.

Tony Steward, the outstanding outside linebacker from St. Augustine, Florida, plays at a relatively

unknown school, Pedro Menendez, yet is currently ranked the No. 1 prospect in Florida and in the top five players in the country, according to most professional scouts. Until recently, the recruitment of Steward has been a two-team competition with Florida State and Clemson leading the race to get Steward’s signature. However, Bryant-Denny, with a capacity of nearly 102,000, must have been extremely impressive to Steward on his visit to watch as the Tide played its epic battle against the Florida Gators and Urban Meyer, who came to Tuscaloosa for a night game. If Steward was as impressed as he should have been, the Tide could possibly take the lead in his recruitment.

The top linebacker in the country, Tony Steward is 6’2”, 225 lbs. and runs a legit 4.5. Extremely explosive at the point of attack, he also runs through his tackles, as well as wrapping up well. Instinctive at reading the quarterback’s eyes, Steward reacts very well. He does an excellent job of shedding blocks and is one of the biggest hitters to come out of high school in the past few years. Playing the middle of the field like a head-hunter, Steward is very good at coming off the edge and at rushing the passer. He also has good coverage skills and surprisingly good ball skills, like those of a safety. When it comes to linebackers, Steward has absolutely every quality desired: speed, strength, size, agility and lateral pursuit skill. If there is one improve-ment to be made in Steward’s game, it would be to sometimes exhibit more patience when reading the play and to not always go for the kill shot. The Tide is recruiting Steward as an inside linebacker where he is likely to be a complete

difference-maker.Bama’s 31-6 blow-out victory over the

Florida Gators must have been an impres-sive sight for all the recruits who came to see the No. 1 team in the nation play at home. It is safe to say that there were more top recruits at this game than at any other game in recent memory. In 2005, the Tide lit Florida up 31-3 in Bryant-Denny, igniting probably the loudest game ever from Bama fans. However, this past weekend, with the addition of the second upper end zone, Bama’s crowd reached almost 102,000 fans. At times, the cheers were so deafening fans could not hear the person sitting next to them talk. One has to believe that the fans’ enthusiasm contributed to the Tide’s dominating performance over Florida.

The Tide recently secured its second commitment and he is a good one: Caleb Gulledge from Prattville, Ala. At 6’4”, 254 lbs, Gulledge projects as a strong defensive end. With the Tide having very few spots

left in the 2011 class, a high priority is already being placed on the 2012 class. Gulledge joins Eddie Williams, a 6’4”, 200 lb. safety from Arnold High School in Panama City, Fla., who will probably be the No. 1 player in Florida next year. Williams has made a great effort to recruit prospects to join him at Alabama in the 2012 class. The in-state crop for 2012 looks a lot like the 2008 class: it’s loaded. Watch for Alabama to be very picky about who they take commitments from to close up the 2011 class.

Some of the other high-profile recruits who attended the Alabama-Florida game in Tuscaloosa were Demetrius Hart, Hasean Clinton-Dix, Nick O’Leary, Isaiah Crowell, Gabriel Wright, A.C. Leonard, Buck Allen, Bobby Hart, Erique Florence, Xzavier Ward, and many 2012 athletes, with some standouts like Kwon Alexander, Trae Elston, Justin Thomas, Reggie Ragland and Jameis Winston.

LSU at Florida 6:30 PM ESPN ESPN3.comLSU will travel to Gainesville after a 16-14 win against Tennessee. The Tigers have had a rough season. After their victory on Oct. 2, head coach Les Miles stated, “We’re a talented football team not playing very smart right now. I like the outcome. I don't like the way we got there." The Tigers defeated the Vols after with a total of 434 yards to 217. However, LSU also had four turnovers, two interceptions and a fumble. The Gators are recovering from their hard loss to No. 1 Alabama on Oct. 2. Florida lost 31-6 to the reigning national champions. This was the first match-up between the two teams after Alabama defeated Florida for the 2009 SEC champion-ship title. Alabama’s defense toppled over Florida’s QB John Brantley and never allowed the Gators to reach the end zone. Florida also possessed four turnovers during the game.

Tennessee at Georgia 11:21 am SEC Network ESPN3.comGeorgia will host the Vols after their fourth straight loss. The Bulldogs were defeated by Colorado on Oct. 2, 29-27. The Dawgs fumbled the ball while preparing for a go-ahead field goal. The Buffaloes’ linebacker Jon Major recovered the fumble and won the game. This is Georgia’s longest losing streak since 1990. Tennessee’s journey to Athens will be a long one after they recover from a 16-14 loss to No. 12 LSU on Oct. 2. It was a hard defeat for the Vols, who almost defeated the Tigers of Baton Rouge. LSU allowed the clock to run almost to zero after confusion on third-and-goal from the 1. They followed this with a mishandled snap, and Tennessee stormed the field in belief that they had won. However, the refs determined that there were 13 Vols on defense on the field when the ball was snapped. Georgia carries a 1-4 record, while their opponent Tennessee is currently at 2-3.

Auburn at Kentucky 6:30 PM ESPN2 ESPN3.comThe Wildcats will host Chizik’s Tigers after their 42-35 loss to Ole Miss on Oct. 2. The Rebels have won seven of the past nine

games against Kentucky, who hasn’t been victorious in Oxford since 1978. Despite their loss last week, the Wildcats carried 424 yards to the Rebels 301. Although Kentucky was in the lead at the half, their many mistakes and turnovers gave Ole Miss the victory. Auburn, currently No. 8 in the AP polls, carries a 5-0 record this season. They defeated Louisiana Monroe on Oct. 2, 52-3. The Tigers shined from the beginning after QB Cam Newton scored a 94-yard touchdown pass on his first throw. Auburn scored on their first five drives and gained a total of 505 yards.

Help Protect Yourself Today.A Serious and Growing Problem.Identity theft is one of the fastest growing crimes in the nation. Over 11 million Americans fell victim to the crime in 2009, at a cost of over $54 billion. (Source: Javelin Strategy & Research. “2010 Identity Fraud Survey Report.” February 2010.)

As thieves employ more sophisticated and high-tech methods, the number of identities exposed in a single theft increases dramatically, as does a consumer’s level of risk. Every week, retail companies, financial institutions, and national organizations are breached, and the personal and financial information of hard working Americans is stolen.

LifeLock, the leader in proactive identity theft protection, helps protect your identity – even if your personal information falls into the wrong hands. As a LifeLock member, if you become a victim of identity theft because of a failure in our service, we’ll help you fix it at our expense, up to $1,000,000. (Restrictions apply.
