The first team victory was won in 1896 when the ‘Cadets’ or the ‘Crimson White’ or ‘the Varsity’ as they were then variously called won 56-0 against a team composed of selected players from Birmingham high schools. In 1924, the team began to gain national attention. Ever since then, the team has been famous for importing players from other states who ate one time comprised 1/3 of the team. Today the team has accumulated 13 national championship titles. The team was coached by Wallace Wade during the first three victories. The last two championships , in 1992 and in 2009 were under the guidance of Gene Stallings and Nick Saban. They won 56-0. But it was not until 1924 that the team rose to national prominence.

In 1992 the team’s coach was Gene Stallings and in their latest win in 2009, they were under Coach Nick Saban.

Judging from the past performance of the team and its present setup of players and coach, that prophecy may just come true. One thing that the team has got going against them is the jinx that the Bowl Championship series seems to have. No team has one it in two consecutive years so far. USC won two consecutive national championships but the first crown was awarded by Associated Press.
The Tide’s next game will be held at its home base, the Bryant-Dent stadiums which are right now being done over to accommodate more seats.
