18 Days Until Kickoff!!

Archie Manning (#18), QB, Ole Miss

And we are 18...18 (Archie Manning) days away from the kickoff of college football. I can almost smell it!! In any event, here is today's video. It is of The #2 ranked Crimson Tide facing the #10 ranked Tennessee Volunteers at Legion Field for the third Saturday in October. The Tide rolled early behind QB Gary Rutledge who threw an 80 yard TD to Wayne Wheeler on Bama's first play from scrimmage. In the 2nd quarter with the Tide leading 21-7 Tennessee's multi-talented QB Condredge Holloway (who was in consideration by Coach Bryant in the recruiting battles but politics prevailed ) closed the gap to 21-14 with a 6 yard sneak, just before halftime. The 3rd period then began underway. The day belonged to Alabama's first African-American to receive a scholarship, Mr. Wilbur Jackson. ENJOY!!
