Alabama Football A-Day Countdown: Bama’s Best #60 of All Time

Chris Samuels was a big time get in head coach Gene Stallings’ final recruiting class. Despite spending the majority of his time blocking Alabama Football through choppy waters under head coach Mike Dubose, Samuels excelled.

Samuels started 42 games at the all important left tackle position and never gave up a single sack. I’m going to write that again because you need to see it twice. Samuels started 42 games at the all important left tackle position and never gave up a single sack.

I have typed the word sack now three times in this write-up. That is 3 more times than Chris Samuels ever gave one up while protecting Alabama Football signal callers.
