That's all it takes to get people to win football games for you.

You're still going to win with preparation and dedication and plain old desire. If you don't have genuine desire, you won't be dedicated enough to prepare properly.

Offense sells tickets, but defense wins championships.

At Alabama, our players don't win Heisman Trophies. Our teams win National Championships.

I honestly believe that if you are willing to out-condition the opponent, have confidence in your ability, be more aggressive than your opponent and have a genuine desire for team victory, you will become the national champions. If you have all the above, you will acquire confidence and poise, and you will have those intangibles that win the close ones.

If it is worth playing, it is worth paying the price to win.

When you win, there's glory enough for everybody. When you lose, there's glory for none.
