SORRY!  I had meant to be adding these updates as they became available.  Unfortunately, I couldn't get to a computer for a few days.  Here are some more:

Bill Plaschke's column on how Nick Saban is no fun

A great human interest story on how the Bryant Scholarship is still impacting lives today

Here's a story that focuses on our defense's approach to stopping the Horns, with a last sentence hat tip towards our tremendously improved graduation rates

You know they couldn't resist doing a story on everybody's favorite mountain, Terrence Cody

Varied updates on the Tide with a focus on placekicker Leigh Tiffin

Details of Mark Ingram's unselfish attitude accompanied by another bit of "writing"by Plaschke

A story on the epic clash (AARRGGH!) that will take place when our stiff-arming wrecking ball meets UT's stellar rushing D

It's interesting to read about the players we know so well in the words of foreigners, and I will be monitoring their site for any new stories leading up to Thursday's game.

Enjoy!
