Dumb question -- what does an elephant have to do with Alabama?
Nothing like the start of college football!

I believe that the Elephant produces the largest pile of dung of all earths creatures ..... does that clear things up

With all the fried food here in Alabama combined with the lack of exercise there are more elephants running around than you might think!

Maybe the BYU cougars need to become the BYU elephants in that case....

I'm glad you asked that question. Now, Bama, what is the REAL answer?

One account of the mascot's derivation began in 1930, when Birmingham Trunk Company, whose trademark is a red elephant standing on a trunk to signify the luggage's durability, presented red elephant good luck charms to members of Rose Bowl-bound Alabama.
When the team, composed of predominantly large men, emerged from the train in Pasadena with red elephant trinkets suspending from their luggage, reporters were awed by the players' mass and quickly seized upon the insignias on their baggage. Thus, the connection was born.

The Ute fans are the only fans immune from the following!
I think the SEC just bitch slapped the ACC in such a way this thread should be shut down for the rest of the season!
Roll Freaking Tide!
The Boomer Sooners should be Bitch slapped just for playing a game against a High School team from Chatanooga!
If you dont have a team in the SEC stay off this freaking thread cause your season is a fantasy!

Watching Oklahoma play a doormat so I didn't get to see much of the Bama game. What I did see was impressive. If they can play with that intensity every week, they are going to have a great year. Stoops won it all in his second season.
Great win!

| Yeppers. Even KU won. Of course they were playing some small school from Florida (FIU) who didn't have a chance as the 40-10 final shows. I really can't complain about MY team being ranked at #14. Last edited on Mon Sep 1st, 2008 06:16 pm by hstrybuf
