[RollTideFan] Quotes from The Tide...
Quotes: We expect them to come in and play their best game of the season, guard Evan Mathis said. We have to expect that. Said quarterback Spencer Pennington of Croom: I'm sure it is special for him. It's like a homecoming and he's going to have his guys ready to play. We know that. This is a big game for us, Shula said. It's an SEC game. We're trying to get a sixth win. Our guys are hungry. ... We feel like we're a better team than last year, and we feel like at 5-3, that doesn't show the hard work. I know coach Croom, Bates said. I have a lot of respect for him, and I know he's going to use that to motivate his team and make it more of a personal thing. We're real close to being undefeated this year, said Pennington, who fired a game-ending interception in the final minute at Tennessee. We are excited about the rest of the season. We've got three big SEC games coming up and we're ready to show some people what we can do. ~~ http://www.decaturdaily.com/decaturdaily/sports/041103/shula.shtml ROLL TIDE!!

[RollTideFan] Concession!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2004/09/08/politics/main641817.shtml Kerry Concedes Race To Bush 10:17 a.m. Nov. 3, 2004 Schieffer: What's Left Sen. John Kerry has lunch at the Union Oyster House after voting on Election Day in Boston. Left is his wife Teresa Heinz Kerry, and right is longtime friend and former campaign manager Chris Greeley. (Photo: CBS/AP) (CBS/AP) Sen. John Kerry called President Bush on Wednesday to concede the White House race, hours after White House chief of staff Andy Card declared Mr. Bush the winner, CBS News has learned. Senior advisers to Kerry had huddled Wednesday to weigh their next move. One senior Democrat familiar with the discussions said Democratic vice presidential candidate John Edwards was suggesting to Kerry that he shouldn't concede. The official said Edwards, a trial lawyer, wanted to make sure all options were explored and that Democrats pursued them as thoroughly as Republicans would if the positions were reversed. But Kerry's decision hinged on Ohio and its 20 electoral votes. Mr. Bush was leading in the state, and for Kerry to have won, an overwhelming majority of outstanding ballots would have to have been deemed valid and go his way. Kerry would also need to have won in Wisconsin, which CBS News deemed too close to estimate, or in both New Mexico - where uncounted absentee ballots loomed large - and Iowa, where technical issues halted counting overnight. Kerry was leading in Wisconsin but behind in the other two states. Al Gore won all three in 2000. According to CBS News estimates, with those four states outstanding, Mr. Bush is 16 electoral votes shy of the magic number of 270. Mr. Bush now has a total of 254 electoral votes, compared to 242 for his Democratic challenger. In the popular vote, Mr. Bush leads Kerry 51 percent to 48 percent. Mr. Bush himself planned to declare victory before long. Card, speaking shortly before dawn, said the president delayed that statement to give Senator Kerry the respect of more time to reflect on the results of this election. ___ RTF mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://rolltidefan.net/mailman/listinfo/rtf_rolltidefan.net

[RollTideFan] Pressure on Prothro...
Team injuries put added pressure on Prothro By Christopher Walsh Sports Writer November 03, 2004 http://www.tidesports.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20041103/NEWS/411030341/1011 TUSCALOOSA | When senior running back Ray Hudson was lost for the season with a knee injury against Kentucky, not only was the University of Alabama football team without its leading rusher, but its top pass receiver as well. When sophomore running back Tim Castille was recently lost for the season with a knee injury against Tennessee, it was also suddenly without a player who going into the game was tied for second with sophomore wide receiver Tyrone Prothro in receptions behind Hudson. Now Prothro is the only one of the three remaining, making it more important than ever that the Crimson Tide find ways to get him the football. Thats part of football and injuries happen, Prothro said. When injuries happen, the next guy has to step up. While sophomore tailback Kenneth Darby, freshman tailback Aaron Johns and sophomore fullback LeRon McClain will obviously see more snaps and handoffs, nothing could arguably help the offense more than getting more production out of the passing game and the young corps of wide receivers. Topping that list is Prothro, who leads the Tide with 15 catches for 192 yards and one touchdown. Hes a playmaker, coach Mike Shula said. Hopefully, hell continue to do that, but other guys as well. We have to get Keith Brown more involved, we have to get DJ Hall and Matt Caddell more involved. Were really close to that. Ive said it for three weeks and Im tired of saying it. Although he began the season with a sore ankle and junior quarterback Brodie Croyles season-ending knee injury resulted in Alabama dropping to last in Southeastern Conference passing, Alabama has seemingly been trying to get Prothro more involved all year. One way of doing so has been to include him in non-passing situations. The only returning wide receiver with experience, Prothros taken five handoffs on end-arounds for 48 yards (and a 9.6 average). That Prothro has started only one game is misleading as hes by far taken the most snaps - in part because among the wide receivers hes the best blocker. If running the ball is going to [work] and we have to block for the rest of the year, then thats what were going to do, Prothro said. Hes also returned kicks with sophomore Brandon Brooks, and his 35.4 average would lead the nation if he had enough attempts to qualify. But since his 100-yard return for a touchdown against Kentucky, Prothro hasnt had a kickoff come his way. I dont know if you can get him more returns, special teams coach Dave Ungerer said. Part of it is based on kicks that go into the end zone for touchbacks. Part of it is kicking away from him and theyre trying to do that. I think were in a good situation having two guys back there that are dangerous guys. The thing that we have to coach more than anything right now is be patient. But Prothros five catches for 71 yards against Tennessee on Oct. 23 may have been the equivalent of a breakthrough performance for this unit. It tied Castille for the most catches in game (vs. West Carolina on Sept. 18), and was the most yards since Browns 91 against Utah State -- and the true freshman was aided by a 57-yard touchdown strike from Croyle. In the previous seven games, Prothro had no more than two receptions and his season high was 35 yards. I thought Tyrone came to play, offensive coordinator Dave Rader said about the Tennessee game. Im not saying no one else did, but Tyrone was really on his game. He really had some nice routes, and it may be because Tennessee was aware of his speed and played off him some. We need that every week out of Tyrone. Judging by what coaches see in practice, theyre optimistic the corner has been turned. Junior quarterback Spencer Pennington is getting more confident and more comfortable with his receivers each day. However, considering the diminishing options at other positions, the potential of Prothro and others must continue to mature into production. Our younger guys run their routes better every day, Rader said. It has to translate sooner or later. We keep thinking this is going to be the week. -- ROLL TIDE!!

[RollTideFan] MSU: Bama Hired Wrong Coach
Bulldogs say Alabama hired wrong coach By Tommy Deas Sports Writer November 03, 2004 http://www.tidesports.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20041103/NEWS/411030340/1011 STARKVILLE, Miss. | The University of Alabama could have hired Sylvester Croom as its head football coach instead of Mike Shula. Players at Mississippi State, where former Crimson Tide All-American Croom is in his first season as head coach, say Alabama made a mistake in choosing another former UA player, Shula, over Croom. I think they did, said offensive lineman David Stewart, a senior from Moulton. Im kind of glad they did. Mal Moore, Alabamas athletics director, interviewed both Shula and Croom last spring before offering the job to Shula, who took over after Mike Price was dismissed before ever coaching a game at Alabama. UA President Robert E. Witt said Price was fired for his conduct off the field. Croom emerged as MSUs top candidate to replace Jackie Sherrill, a former Alabama player and Mississippi States all-time winningest coach, after Sherrill retired at the end of last season. Croom was hired last December and has coached the Bulldogs to a 3-5 record so far in his first season. Mississippi States players say they view Saturdays game at Alabama as a mission. They want to win it for their coach. Everybodys taking it as weve got to win this game for Coach Croom, said sophomore linebacker Michael Heard. He doesnt bring it up and we dont bring it up. You can just tell. You did all that [he did] for your alma mater and they treat you like that, you know how he must feel. Heard also believes Croom is a better coach than Shula. Im glad they didnt hire [Croom], he said. Weve got the best coach. Hes turned the program around. Jonathan Lowe, a freshman receiver for MSU, is the son of former UA player Eddie Lowe and nephew of all-time great Woodrow Lowe, a former UA linebacker. He has a sister currently enrolled at Alabama. Like his coach, Jonathan Lowe felt snubbed by Alabama in the recruiting process. Coach Croom said he was going to make the best of it, just like I am, he said. Were gunning for Alabama. We want to knock them off. Alabama hired who they wanted to hire. They hired Coach Shula and Mississippi State got Coach Croom. Now were going to show them. Weve got to do what weve got to do. -- ROLL TIDE!! Rick ___ RTF mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://rolltidefan.net/mailman/listinfo/rtf_rolltidefan.net
