Crimson Tide vs. Green Wave

On Saturday we made the trek to Tuscaloosa for the first home football game of the season! We played Tulane and after the wonderful showing at the Clemson game, Bama fans were a bit disappointed with how the game turned out- us included! We still won by 2 touchdowns but that was thanks to a stellar performance by Javier Arenas and our Defense... the offense looked seriously weak and things obviously weren't clicking! It was really nice to be in Bryant Denny, even if everyone had the same "let-down" feeling about how the team was playing.

Other than the game itself, we had a great time! We rode over to Tuscaloosa around noon, which was great for me! I got to sleep in and get over my morning yuck at home, which was nice! We went with Chris' parents, our Gameday partners in crime, and Rocky, one of our buddy's that we always do games with. Phillip and Shannon, our old next door neighbors, met us at the tailgate and it was great to get together again! We had a lot of catching up to do and so much has been going on in both of our lives!!! We always tailgate a few blocks away from the stadium with my Uncle Bobby and it was great to get the Gameday festivities going again!

The weather was great, in my opinion! Not way too hot and a bit overcast... I was so happy about this! I am going to try to go to the game this weekend against Western Kentucky! Hopefully the weather will cooperate again!

We got home late on Saturday night and Phillip and Shannon stayed the night with us. The next morning we ate at Jim n' Nicks on their way out of town... we all had a really good time and we are looking forward to this weekend with our Gameday Crew!!!
