Every good story has an ending. But it's a story like this that makes you question: Was this really the kind of ending that this story deserved?
No. Not at all.
Lead by Nick Saban and senior quarterback, AJ McCarron, the Alabama Crimson Tide lead one of the greatest college football dynasties that this nation has ever seen. And they added on to many reasons on why the SEC is probably the best conference in college football. Although many fans and other rivals assumed that Alabama would be heading back to the BCS National Championship just like they did every other year, the Crimson Tide's three-year long national championship reign has come to an end. The Auburn Tigers ended the hopes of the Crimson Tide heading back into the championship game. And that's where this story begins.
Starting off their 2013 season against Virginia Tech, it was a no brainer that they would win. And they continued that winning streak all the way into November 30th, 2013. But they played hard every. single. game. And tonight, they still stayed humble, with McCarron classically tweeting each rival a congratulations tweet. The Crimson Tide are one of the most respected and admired teams in the SEC, making them a team hard to hate when it comes to respect and manners.
In the end, there is no hard feelings between Alabama and other teams they've played. Because the team is humble. They ended a four-year dynasty with class and athleticism. That's something to say from a team coming from one of the most stereotyped states in the US. We might be from the South, but we can form some of the best football dynasties in the nation.
