Alabama Football players listened to Alex Rodriquez Friday night, but did they hear? A-Rod offered a compelling story about the 2010 New York Yankees. That season the Yankees were the defending World Champions. But what Rodriquez described as a better Yankees team in 2010, failed to repeat.
The Alabama Crimson Tide is vulnerable to the same result. There are many reasons why. One is the nature of human complacency; an affliction Nick Saban has spent a career trying to negate. Another is college football history that shows how hard it is to repeat.
