TUSCALOOSA, Ala. — Last week, players from a tiny school in South Carolina marched across Alabama’s Bryant-Denny Stadium as if they had just sprung the biggest upset in the sport’s history. It did feel that way. The scoreboard read Alabama 50, The Citadel 17, but the Crimson Tide’s FCS opponent, of all teams, hung with the defending national champions for two quarters, and by gosh, the Bulldogs were going to celebrate properly, so they lingered on the field, sang their alma mater and then ran into the visiting team tunnel to a standing ovation from their own fans and even from Alabama’s.
