It was a great day to be an Alabama fan, as the Crimson Tide took care of business against Tennessee on Saturday. After trailing 20-7 at the half, the Crimson Tide scored 27-unanswered points en route to the victory. Jalen Milroe had 220 yards and 2 touchdowns in the win.
After the game, Nick Saban said he would chew on a cigar for a while.
With Saban enjoying it, there was zero doubt that a lot of Crimson Tide fans would enjoy the moment as well. Alabama announcer Eli Gold talked about the moment that Alabama fans started celebrating the win.
At about the 4:06:50 mark below, Gold speaks about the cigars:
“Oh, I can breathe. I can breathe now. I’ve seen this script before. I can see a bit of a cloud now as Alabama fans light up their cigars. Just a haze.”
It hasn’t been the typical Alabama year, but once again, the Crimson Tide are right back in contention for an SEC championship and potential college football playoff berth.
Alabama will enjoy a week off before getting back on the revenge tour in two weeks. The Crimson Tide will be hosting LSU on November 4, in a rematch of last year’s 32-31 win by LSU in overtime.
