'Bama-Florida: Waiting to rematch (AP)

Sun, 08 Nov 2009 14:28:40 PST

The much-anticipated rematch is set: Alabama against Florida for the Southeastern Conference championship and possibly a berth in the national title game on the line. The game itself, however, isn't for another month and the Tide and Gators have plenty of important work to do before they meet at the Georgia Dome on Dec.

Tide moves into title game with 24-15 win over LSU (AP)

Sat, 07 Nov 2009 18:22:00 PST

Julio Jones left defenders grasping at his heels and Alabama's defense was typically immovable. The Crimson Tide is riding that combination to the SEC championship game for the second consecutive season. The popular Jones made the biggest play of what has been a relatively quiet sophomore season, breaking free for a 73-yard touchdown in the fourth quarter, and No.

Greg McElroy was putting up big numbers as the quarterback for a national championship contender. It's no surprise that No. 3 Alabama's first-year starter crept into the Heisman Trophy conversation a few games into the season. That was Lesson No. 1 for McElroy: Don't buy the hype. Lesson No. 2: Praise can quickly turn into criticism when things stop going so well.

Alabama Team Report (Yahoo! Sports)

Tue, 03 Nov 2009 22:16:31 PST

For the first time in three years, the talk leading into the annual Alabama-LSU game was not about Nick Saban coaching his old team, or LSU's Les Miles coaching against the man he replaced in Baton Rouge.

This time, the game seems to be enough.

No. 3 Alabama (8-0, 5-0 SEC West) hosts No. 9 LSU (7-1, 4-1 SEC West) Saturday in Bryant-Denny Stadium, where the Tide has not beaten the Tigers since 1999 ... although Alabama did beat LSU in Baton Rouge last year.

At stake is simply first place in the SEC West. If the Tide wins, it clinches the division championship and a spot in the SEC Championship Game in Atlanta against Florida, which clinched the Eastern Division title last week.

And, of course, almost every believes that the winner of the SEC championship will...

Tiffin says it's all about the leg -- not the tape (AP)

Thu, 29 Oct 2009 06:41:10 PDT

Talk about pressure. Leigh Tiffin had to come through in a big rivalry game when the offense wasn't producing touchdowns. No. 2 Alabama's kicker had to show it was about the leg, not the tape. Tiffin came through in the aftermath of "Tapegate," kicking four field goals in a 12-10 win over Tennessee when one miss would likely have cost the Crimson Tide its shot at a perfect season.
