The reveal 🙌 Jersey number changes for this season @AlabamaFTBL

@TideMachine @AlabamaFTBL One of my all time favorites. I could listen to him tell stories all day long

Happy 91st birthday to legendary @AlabamaFTBL head coach Gene Stallings, born March 2, 1935 in Paris, Texas. A steady, no-nonsense leader with deep Crimson Tide roots, Stallings restored championship glory to Tuscaloosa and etched his name into Alabama history. In 1992, Stallings guided Alabama to a perfect 13-0 season and the program’s 12th national championship. His Tide capped that magical run with a dominant victory over the heavily favored Miami Hurricanes in the Sugar Bowl, a performance defined by suffocating defense, discipline, and belief. It remains one of the most iconic championship moments in college football history. Stallings, a former player under Paul “Bear” Bryant, brought toughness and tradition back to the Capstone. His teams were built on physical defense, strong line play, and a championship mindset — a formula that reestablished Alabama as the standard in the SEC and nationally during the early 1990s. Today we celebrate not just a Hall of Fame coach, but a man who represented Alabama with class, integrity, and pride.

@TideMachine @AlabamaFTBL Thanks for the post. I wish Mr. Coach Gene Stallings an awesome 91st Birthday and hope he and his family are doing well. 🎂🙏🏈

On this date 43 years ago, the state of Alabama came to a standstill as Paul “Bear” Bryant was laid to rest beneath a hickory tree on Jan. 28, 1983, a farewell that felt less like a funeral and more like a moment frozen in history. Nearly 3,000 people filled three churches in downtown Tuscaloosa, while thousands more lined the roads to Birmingham, just hoping to catch a glimpse of the three-mile funeral procession carrying the man who defined @AlabamaFTBL. At Elmwood Cemetery, as many as 5,000 mourners gathered at Bryant’s graveside. Across the state, schoolchildren huddled around televisions with their teachers, watching and paying respect to a coach who meant far more than wins and losses. As one museum historian later said, “A coach is looked up to, but with Bryant, it was tenfold.” The grief wasn’t just Alabama’s — it belonged to the entire nation, united in honoring a true American sports icon. In the weeks and years that followed, letters, artwork, and memorabilia poured in from across the country to the University of Alabama — a reminder that Bryant’s influence stretched far beyond the sideline. Today, that legacy still lives everywhere in Tuscaloosa — from Bryant-Denny Stadium to street names, campus buildings and the unmistakable houndstooth, a fall wardrobe staple for fans attending Crimson Tide football games. Forty-three years later, Bryant is still very much with us — not just in trophies or history books, but in the culture, the pride and the heartbeat of Alabama itself.

R.I.P. Eddie Conyers, a Crimson Tide legend who helped referee Alabama football practices from the Bear Bryant years all the way until last season when he was 97. #RollTide

@TideMachine @AlabamaFTBL I took this pic when I was a freshman at the UofA in 1980…in those days not much security…I got down on the field and took many pics…he was leaning against the goalpost…thinking…I’m sure about football…what a legend…RTR ❤️🏈

@TideMachine @AlabamaFTBL I’ll never forget walking down sorority row to my car parked at Tutweiler. The sorority girls were placing black wreaths/ribbons on the front doors. They were all crying & I just knew that Coach had passed. When I reached my car and turned on the radio, it was confirmed. ❤️🙏
