ALABAMA CRIMSON TIDE INFORMATION:
The University of Alabama (also known as Alabama, UA, or colloquially as 'Bama) is a public coeducational university located in Tuscaloosa, Alabama. Founded in 1831, UA is the flagship
campus of the University of Alabama System. Within Alabama, it is often called The Capstone or simply The University.
Having been written into the Alabama Constitution, UA is the senior doctoral university in the state. Today, it is one of the state's three major research universities, along with
academic and athletic rival Auburn University and the much younger University of Alabama at Birmingham (UAB).
Crimson Tide
Early accounts in newspapers of the football squad simply referred to them as the "varsity" or the "Crimson White". The first nickname popular with the media was the "Thin Red Line" and
was used until 1906. Hugh Roberts, former sports editor of the Birmingham Age-Herald, is credited with first referring to the Alabama "Crimson Tide" in an article describing the 1907
Iron Bowl played in Birmingham.
The game was played in a sea of red mud with Auburn a heavy favorite to win. Alabama held Auburn to a 6-6 tie, thus graduating to their newfound nickname.
The elephant
The elephant's association with Alabama dates back to the 1930 season when the Crimson Tide was led by Coach Wallace Wade. The following is quoted from Atlanta Journal sports writer
Everett Strupper's article after the 1930 Ole Miss game:
"At the end of the quarter, the earth started to tremble, there was a distant rumble
that continued to grow. Some excited fan in the stands bellowed, 'Hold your horses,
the elephants are coming,' and out stamped this Alabama varsity. It was the first
time that I had seen it and the size of the entire eleven nearly knocked me cold,
men that I had seen play last year looking like they had nearly doubled in size."
Sports writers continued to refer to Alabama as the "Red Elephants" afterwards, referring to their crimson jerseys. The 1930 team shut out eight of ten opponents, allowing a total of
only 13 points all season. The "Red Elephants" rolled up 217 points that season, including a 24-0 victory over Washington State in the Rose Bowl.
