The tiger is no longer king in the state

Nearly every team that has challenged the 2009 Alabama team has pointed to weakness in the secondary as their point of attack None have been successful. Not to say that some have not had success, but the defensive backs have won the war on the field.They have been tested by talented quarterbacks across the SEC Mallet at Arkansas looked mediocre against the Crimson Tide. Garcia, Crompton (his best game of the year), Jefferson, and Snead have each given up interceptions to these fine defenders.On special teams, Javier Arenas is the best that has ever played the returner position at the Capstone. His record setting touchdown against the UTCMocs put the stamp on his productive career. On Friday, they plan to make a statement to the state and to the nation that Alabama football is back and that means domination They don't just plan on winning. The plan is to dominate every facet of the game.36-0 was a warm up.

This team is better, faster and stronger than the 2008 version of the Crimson Tide. This team will bring a Tsunami into Jordan-Hare with the mission of avenging all prior losses. All prior fears of the hand and the thumb will be washed away.Elephants have a very good memory and memories haunt unless they are redeemed. The Auburn nation has not been dignified during their reign as champion. The ruler on the plains was not a kind leader. The tiger is no longer king in the state.The oppression was short lived The Crimson Empire has returned Dominance must be re-established The majestic War Elephant is ready to stomp.
