Alabama Crimson Tide football

sports rivalry nationwide. In the film Roll Tide War Eagle, Cam Newton, former Auburn quarterback, states, “You either have to be crimson or orange and blue.” Greg McElroy, former Alabama quarterback, adds, “And if you don’t pick either one then they both hate you” (Roll Tide War Eagle). Experiencing this first hand, I have seen this turn from a rivalry to an all out war. There is true hatred in this rivalry. No matter where you go in the state of Alabama, you can be sure to see or hear the…

the difference between NFL and college football is. NFL and college are two different types of football. They have a lot in common, yet they each have their own differences that make them unique. College teams play for their school. Most universities have football teams; some teams include the Missouri Tigers, Texas Longhorns, and the Alabama Crimson Tide. When players get out of college the “next step” is to play in the NFL. The NFL is a professional football league. Some teams include the…

Clemson Tigers If you think Clemson head coach Dabo Swinney's Tigers are content with the top seed in this year's College Football Playoff, think again. Despite Clemson’s No. 1 ranking, the Tigers will enter Sun Life Stadium in Miami Gardens, Fla. as the underdog to the 4th-ranked Sooners. With most of the hype surrounding Oklahoma, which in some circles has portrayed the Sooners as possibly this year's Ohio State Buckeyes (won National Championship last season), the Tigers should be fueled to…

My favorite football team is Alabama Crimson Tide. I love to go to their home games and watch them play. My future goals are to get involved with cattle. My granddaddy owns cattle and he make a lot of…

fair way to pay. Paying the athletes is no the solution. The solution is to make the athletes realize that almost nobody on the team will play professionally. The NCAA announces that under two percent of college athletes will play professionally in football and basketball. These athletes need to realize that they are fortunate enough to play the sport while they can, and that it allows them to get educated for a career in the future. The athletes need to appreciate the opportunity they…

hockey, basketball, volleyball, softball, wrestling, cross country, track, tennis, racing, and many more. However, football fans happen to be the most entertaining to watch and interesting to know. Football is a roller coaster of a sport and it brings its fans along for the ride. The best fans are the die-hard fans, the jaded fans, and the band-wagon fans. Die-hard fans make football games entertaining because of their crazy antics. Most North Dakota State University (NDSU) Bison fans are…
