On this date in Crimson Tide history:

November 22, 1973: Alabama celebrated Thanksgiving with a 21-7 victory at LSU. Although Tiger Stadium was roaring as both teams came in unbeaten, long touchdown passes from Gary Rutledge to Wayne Wheeler and a pair of interceptions by safety Ricky Davis helped the Crimson Tide roll. The win was No. 500 in Alabama football history. – Bryant Museum

Crimson Tide quote of the day:

“This must be what God looks like.” _ George Blanda, who played for Paul “Bear” Bryant at Kentucky, upon his first meeting the coach

We’ll leave you with this …

We wouldn’t always choose the paths that God puts us on but sometimes you’re able to look back and be grateful for the adversity

I’m thankful I could share a message of encouragement today with a fellow Alabama family member pic.twitter.com/CMInNkHKZ5
