    Administration of Barack Obama, 2013 Remarks Honoring the 2012 NCAA Football Champion University of Alabama Crimson Tide April 15, 2013 The President. Roll Tide! Audience members. Roll Tide! The President. Everybody, have a seat. Have a seat here. It is a great pleasure to welcome the Alabama Crimson Tide to the White House again. I want to congratulate them on winning their 15th national championship and their third in 4 years. They are starting to learn their way around the White House. [Laughter] I was thinking about just having some cots for them here, they're here so often, except we couldn't find any that were big enough. [Laughter] Now, before I begin, I want to extend sympathies to the family of Mal Moore, who passed away last month, after a career that spanned six decades as a player, a coach, and athletic director at Alabama. Mal did more than just about anybody to make this program what it is today. Our prayers go out to all the members of the Alabama community who knew him and loved him. Now, last year obviously also had a lot of bright spots for the Crimson Tide. From the beginning of spring practice, the best teams in the country had one goal, and that was to try to at least be as good, if not better, than Alabama. But the Tide kept on rising to the occasion, and they never let up. Back in January, with the whole country watching, this team lined up against the number- one ranked, undefeated Fighting Irish of Notre Dame and dominated from the first possession.

  • Crimson White
    Know your college football? Discover Enter the GameDay famous Pick ‘em Challenge at former UA gameday.ua.edu. 8 students Friday, September 10, 2010 Serving the University of Alabama since 1894 Vol. 117, Issue 24 A storied rivalry comes back to life By Britton Lynn Senior Sports Reporter [email protected] When Alabama fans think of the Crimson Tide’s greatest rivalries, most often they think of the in-state one, Auburn. There’s another rivalry, however, that many students have never seen in their lifetimes: the Penn State series. The series hasn’t had a game since 1990, when Joe Paterno’s Nittany Lions beat Gene Stallings’ Tide 9-3. “It’s a game that I’ve had circled on my calendar for the past four or five years,” said senior quarterback Greg McElroy. “It’s a game you tell recruits about and it’s a game that I was aware of when I first got on cam- pus. It’s obviously one of those games; it’s kind of a showcase game. We always kept saying, ‘I hope Coach Paterno’s still coaching. It would be great to compete against him.’” Penn State does know how to win, espe- cially in Tuscaloosa, where they have a 2-1 edge over the Tide. Despite the Nittany Lions’ better record at Bryant-Denny Stadium, Alabama leads the overall series 8-5.
