Did you know...Alabama versus Texas?
They have played eight times and Bama has NEVER beaten the Longhorns.
0-7-1 is the series record in favor of Texas.

RE: Did you know...Alabama versus Texas?
More surprising-
Since Bear Bryant- The number of previous times Alabama has played a Bowl with a chance to win a national championship?
One- 1992.
It has been a LONG time since Alabama was a major player. The other historic programs since then (the last 30 years) Nebraska- played in (at least)6, Oklahoma at least 6, USC 3, Ohio State 3, Penn State 3- while the Florida schools played all the time-- Miami 9, FSU 5, Florida 4...
Texas? 2 times- 1983 and 2005.

When in the world was the last time they played? Aside from Arkansas, Texas doesn't play the SEC much (playing @ Ole Miss in 2012, though). I looked up when Texas last played in the Sugar Bowl, figuring that's where they'd go if they'd lost to Nebraska. I was certain they'd played in it since a 1958 loss to Ole Miss, but I couldn't remember it ever happening and I was right, barely. They played Virginia Tech in 1995.

RE: Did you know...Alabama versus Texas?
Texas has the #1 rush defense. Alabama has the #1 RB, thats basically what it is gonna come down to, FL couldnt stop the run, and AL stopped Tebow and that offense, i can see a low scoring NC game
