Countdown to the Crimson Tide’s 2020 opener:
230 days
On this date in Crimson Tide history:
January 17, 1987: A record 10 Alabama players competed in the Senior Bowl in Mobile. Former Crimson Tide players participating in the all-star game were Britton Cooper, Wes Neighbors, Mike Shula, Cornelius Bennett, Wayne Davis, Al Bell, Curt Jarvis, Greg Richardson, Freddie Robinson and Van Tiffin.
Crimson Tide quote of the day:
“I think it’s more of a not trying to disappoint Coach Saban thing. It makes us go that much harder every day to make him happy. Me? I know I don’t want to make him unhappy. There’s no telling what he could do.” – Alabama offensive lineman Anthony Steen
We’ll leave you with this …
Hey @MartySmithESPN @ESPNMcGee, don’t know if you guys have a trophy for this or not but I made one for future winners! Although I don’t know how well this will ship. https://t.co/nNzb9oEq3S pic.twitter.com/Tl5NJ05PHu
