Twelve national championships, twenty-one SEC championships, twenty College Football Hall of Famers, and the most legendary coach in college football history.

Crimson Tide Madness is the story of University of Alabama football as told by players, coaches, opponents, fans, and the media. It salutes the great stars, teams, moments, rivalries, venues, fans, and traditions of Alabama football, including chapters on the all-time Alabama team plus all national championships rosters.
