Ok Forrest Gump
THE TIDE SINCE 1980 sec champions in 81,89,92,99
National champions in 92

THE TIDE OVER THE LAST 10 YEARS and this is the one thats SHOWS they are TRULY a NATIONAl power.
The tides record is 71 and 52.
Wake up ALABAMA FOOTBALL IS not a national power.

As of today the ap poll does not have alabama ranked but Clemson is I think 20 and frezno state is even ranked.
Usa today poll has Clemson 23 Alabama 24 and what do you know, fezno state at 25.
Yeh I'd say alabama is a National power.
Stop living in the past boys.
