Nico sorta started this last year, and BON is doing it up hot and spicy, Texas style, so we're starting our own countdown today.
We're planning on matching each day with a player who wore that number, but finding good pictures of some of the older players is proving difficult (surprisingly, there aren't a lot of photos floating around the internets of Pooley Hubert wearing #10). So this is where we need your help; If you have any good pictures of players (preferably someone we've all heard of) that you've taken during a game or at an autograph session/meet and greet where their jersey number is plainly visible, or even scans of football cards you've collected that you'd like to share send them to us at rollbamaroll -at- gmail.com. We'll be sure to give you credit and profuse thanks if we use it. And for days where there just isn't a player picture to match, we'll post something Alabama, so if you have any pictures of you and your family/friends tailgating, your adorable children and/or pets in Bama gear, or even your smoking hot girlfriend that you want to show off (just kidding, but totally not), send them along, too. Click on "Read More" to see who we've gotten on the list already and leave any suggestions for different players to represent a jersey number in the comments.
