Roll Tide Roll: Alabama's National Championship Season

by Ray Melick

When legendary coach Paul 'Bear' Bryant died in 1983, Alabama lost one of college football's most successful coaches. Then, in 1990, the University of Alabama hired Gene Stallings, a true Bear Bryant man, and the Tide began to roll again. After an 11-0 regular season, the Tide trounced the high-powered Miami Hurricanes in the Sugar Bowl to win the National Championship.
