Alabama football fans would be wise to recognize how fortunate are the followers of the Alabama Crimson Tide. Few college football programs can claim to have two of the best head coaches in the history of the game. The Crimson Tide has had arguably the two best ever. Some Notre Dame fans will attempt to dispute Bryant and Saban as the best of all time. They will counter with Knute Rockne and Frank Leahy and quickly add all the national championships the Irish never claimed.
Some of us Alabama football fans remember one the Irish do claim and unjustifiably so.
