1. Alabama is still great, and it’s okay
Yeah, rooting for Alabama is like cheering for Amazon’s stock to improve by a quarter of a point or for Pete Davidson to find love again, but appreciate the greatness.
This is Tiger Woods. This is Tom Brady. This is McDonald’s Diet Coke. This is consistency year after year after year with a program that continues to roll at the highest of levels and under the most pressure possible.
Think about it. Alabama was dead.
One run by Auburn out of bounds. One more big play by LSU. One two-point conversion by Florida. A few more late moments by Arkansas. There were several things that could’ve – and probably should’ve – happened that would’ve knocked out the Tide, but they’re here. They’re in the national championship, and it’s not boring.
Blow off all those who’ll whine about the same old boring team in the title game again. Ignore all those who’ll pretend they won’t watch the national championship.
This Alabama run will eventually end.
But not yet.
