As much as I dislike Man United (Go Liverpool!) I've been told that as a Bama fan, I've been cheering for the stateside United the whole time. Upon further inspection.... I'm horrified. Say it isn't so!!!!







Alabama
BCS Titles: 3
National Titles: 15
Conference Titles: 23


Manchester United
Champions League Titles: 3
League Titles: 20
FA Cups: 11

Managers/Coaches
Legend: Bear Bryant
Living Legend: Nick Saban


Legend: Matt Busby
Living Legend: Alex Ferguson
(Both Saban and Ferguson hate the media, blow up at officials and have statues in front of their stadiums).

Emotional Hero
Pat Trammell
Duncan Edwards

Historical Tragedy
April 27th, 2011
Munich Air Disaster

Best Players Ever
Derrick Thomas

I wouldn't equate Champions League titles to BCS titles. The CL has been going on since the 60s (Real Madrid still hold the most) while the BCS is a relatively new thing. Infact I'd compare All National Titles to CL titles and SEC titles to League titled. In which case Alabama has been FAR more dominant in their history.

Alabama is greater than ManU

Liverpool and bama are actually by far the best comparison to each other. It was especially true before bama's recent run of success.

Also, Saban gets way angrier than Fergie

Both are known for having fan bases with poor dental hygiene

As much as I hate to say it, because Bama is Satan to me, this is probably true.

Fergie's anger can't be characterized by a .gif, unless that .gif is him kicking a cleat at David Beckham. His anger is more evident through his amazing ability to hold a grudge. He's like the crazy guy in Billy Madison.
