WVU v. Alabama: They’re playing for second today

You are looking live at Robin Albano, an Alabama super fan from Decatur, Alabama, who has an ensemble or every Crimson Tide game. True story: I was in the College Football Hall of Fame earlier in the day. If you’ve never been, well, first, you should change that. Until then, you should know beneath the literal hall of fame is a level with exhibits that celebrate the sport, the history of it and especially the pageantry.

I saw Mr. Albano there and thought he was an exhibit in the part devoted to fans. He is not. I saw him tailgating outside the fan fest and had to stop and talk him up for a bit. He is a southern gentleman who happens to be fiercely and fashionably devoted to his team.

He wins. He does. Anyhow, we’re on the 47-yard line at the Georgia Dome. I’ve heard the sound check for the PA and two things I should report: 1) No CEJ. 2) Sweet Home Alabama is available in the queue.
