1. Revenge Is Sweet

It sounds simple, but this Alabama football team is out for revenge. The Tide was embarrassed at home in Tuscaloosa last year, and they want nothing more than to turn the tables on the Rebels Saturday night.

BamaHammer created a Twitter poll earlier this week that asked the question, “How much of a ‘revenge factor’ is there for Alabama against Ole Miss this year?” 70% of the current 240 responders said “100%”. Only 20 percent of voters said either 50% or zero. The fans want the win, and so does the team.

Alabama is the current national title holder, but there’s still a blemish on last year’s record. That ugly mark, the number in the “loss” column, was put there by Ole Miss. The entire Bama nation wants another golden prize for the trophy case, and they want it with a perfect record.

Is that a lot to expect from a team? Of course it is. But hey…this is Alabama football, and we settle for nothing less than excellence.
