was the night after Auburn and all through the land, not a “Roll Tide” was uttered by a Crimson Tide fan. - They used to be boisterous, they used to be loud, they used to be boastful, and cocky and proud. - But they lost all their swagger, they lost all their swing. For one little second had changed everything. - The score it was even. The clock had run dry. When Nicholas Saban then started to cry. - He demanded a second be put on the clock. The worse that could happen? A miss or a block. - But fate it is fickle, and greed has a price, and what happened next just wasn’t too nice. - The previous kicks, wide left and wide right. So he put in a rookie, twas not very bright. - The kick was a boomer of 56 yards, but the extra yard needed was not in the cards. - And back in the end zone a lone Tiger stood. He caught that ol’ football, he caught it real good. - He started to run, he heard the cheers grow. The Crimson Tide offense? Too fat and too slow. - One hundred and nine he ran for a score. If needed he could have ran one hundred more - The crowd it erupted while storming the field. The Crimson Tide’s season was settled and sealed. - A cry of “War Eagle” soon echoed the plain. Nick Saban’s expression was one of pure pain. - And in Tuscaloosa you could hear a pin drop. And in Tallahassee a tomahawk chop. - For the night after Auburn the Tide does not roll. The new boss in town wears garnet and gold.
