Title: Re: Bama Football History Post by: hscoach on November 30, 2011, 11:04:15 AM It looks as if this is the winning Sr class in Bama history.
Title: Re: Bama Football History Post by: pmull on November 30, 2011, 11:14:37 AM It looks as if this is the winning Sr class in Bama history. This group of seniors will finish with a 48-6 record after we beat LSU. This is winning percentage of .889. The 1980 senior class had a record of 44-4. That is a percentage of .916. They also won 2 championships. Both of these senior classes did an outstanding job. It depends on if you look at number of wins or the highest percentage to determine the best class ever. Title: Re: Bama Football History Post by: BAMAWV on November 30, 2011, 12:01:21 PM I just spent 2.5 hrs. playing. If we had this back in our day Jamos, internet by mobile phone, bar fights could've been cut in half--settling this stuff!

You are not just kidding, I still wonder how I got out of some of them alive. :lol: #+ Maybe I'll put a copy of it in my wallet, I've done got too old to pick on anyone and I might not have enough time to pull it up on my cellphone to save my rear end. ;) Title: Re: Bama Football History Post by: hscoach on November 30, 2011, 12:20:22 PM It looks as if this is the winning Sr class in Bama history.

I also, don't think they could play as many games back then.

Help out historians it was 63, or 64 I think. RTR!
Title: Re: Bama Football History Post by: XBAMA on November 30, 2011, 04:09:47 PM I believe it was for the end of 63 and the bowl game in 64
miami and ole miss I think Title: Re: Bama Football History Post by: Elephantidae on November 30, 2011, 04:13:43 PM I thought that was a Georgia Tech game. He sat Joe Willie until about 2 minutes to go in the half because he had a knee injury. Joe went in and struggled on the first two plays then drove for a TD and then we recovered an onside kick and he threw another TD pass. I think we scored twice in 1:54 or something like that. 1963 I believe. Joe didn't play the 2nd half.
