Wanted to say thank you Bill for your call and effort in clearing the air regarding the Tenneessee Coach in the stands after the game. We as Tide fans realize that beating Tennessee was larger than just a win. It a sign that even when you have the odds stacked against you (with Fulmer and the NCAA), it is impossible to keep the tradition, that is Alabama Football, down. Class is a characteristic that you keep with you and it is important to maintain that class - win, lose, or draw. The players and coaches of Alabama are in a spot they have worked very hard to get to. Alabama fans have gone through thick and thin with the players. What the Tennessee coach did was completely void of class. It definitley reflects their school, program, and fans. However, it shouldn't be suprising to see such behavior from people who have committed foul acts to try and keep themeselves on top through lies, deceipt and protection from the NCAA. OK, moving along, we had a great homecoming win against Utah State and now we look to a Mississippi State team, who I hope we don't underestimate. Lets continue to root The Tide on through the rest of this regular season! Again Bill, thank you for your call and if you would like to holler at us the # is 1-206-202-4886. ROLL TIDE!! ~ "The Wezz"

I have to say it is great to be a member of the Tide Nation this afternoon. A game of defenses until the end of the third quarter when we received bad ball placement on a third down and denied the first down. Mr. Money, Jamie Christensen, came out and put the first points on the board with a field goal for Alabama. Then Tennessee answered with a field goal of thier own. Next it came down to the fourth quater with Tennessee marching down the field to our red zone. Gerald Riggs with a sacrificing run that put him out of the game setup Cory Anderson for a shot at our end zone. On third down they gave it to Anderson who was running in for a touchdown until an angel from heaven Roman Harper weighing in at 195 lbs charges in to nail 270 lb Anderson and produce a fumble. The ball is knocked out of the end of the end zone to give Alabama a touchback. Where we get the ball on our 20 yard line. Tennessee holds us to no yardage until our third down, with us struggling against their defense all day on third downs, and Croyle nails DJ Hall with a beutiful pass for a huge 43 yard gain. Then Darby comes out with two great first down runs to put us in field goal range. Just like last week Mr. Jamie "Money" Christensen came out and kicked the game winning field goal. For the cherry on top Dameco Ryans ended the game with an interception on a hail mary pass by Erik Ainge to wind down the clock. You have to give it to our red zone defense and Mr. Harper for saving the tide nation and our offense lead by Mr. Croyle to step up when they had to and pull out the game. Just as Coach Shula stated "It wasn't pretty" but it got the job done. This was our first win against Tennessee in Tuscaloosa since 1930 and the first time we have been 7-0 since 1996 with Gene Stallings. Check the game stats out below and make sure to check tommorow evening when we will have our next show. Roll Tide Roll

Suprise, Suprise. Isley made it back from his death bed to bring you a special edition of On The Quad to tell you what is going on in T-Town and to get you pumped up for the big game this Saturday. I think both Jason, Wes and Kevin will be at the game this weekend so if your tailgating try to listen for someone playing our podcast and it will probably be them. If that fails just walk around yelling their name you should find them. One day we will get organized and get some Tshirts. Well we hope you enjoy the show and contact us and let us know what you think.

Looks like we will have some very special guests in Tide town for the game this weekend, Ms. Condeoleezza Rice and Mr. Jack Straw. Ms. Rice is a Birmingham native currently helping our great country as the 66th Secretary of State and Mr. Straw is the British foreign secretary. They will perform the pregame coin flip when we host the Vols this weekend. Alan from Rome, Georgia asked who was going to need more security Ms. Rice or the robust Fulmer. I agree with Alan and would put my money on Sir Super SizeMe. Ms. Rice said that she invited Mr. Straw because he has an interest in the civil rights movement and most secretaries of state rarely get to visit any of our nations great cities other than DC and New York. So Tide fans lets give them a warm welcome and a rowdy Roll Tide as we walk all over Fulmer and his cronies this weekend.
