Best College Football Tradition “Sweet Home Alabama”
College Football has a romantic quality. Nobody can dispute the significant role that tradition plays in our sport. It may be the fresh fall air, or it might be the student body. There is no sport like it—the intense rivalries in the Deep South, The Game in the North, Enter Sandman.

There is no sport like it—the intense rivalries in the Deep South, The Game in the North, Enter Sandman.
Even though college football is blessed with many beautiful traditions, 247 Sports has determined that the Alabama Crimson Tide’s “Sweet Home Alabama” is the finest tradition in football. They cite this to support their ranking:
“Inside Bryant-Denny Stadium, the speakers crank out the song, and all 100,000 fans in attendance sing out the lyrics to the song. It is rather simple, but something that gives you chills if you are lucky enough to be a part of the tradition.”

You have to agree; there is nothing quite like it for those fortunate enough to attend Bryant-Denny on a Saturday in the fall. Even if you don’t support the Tide.
A beautiful afternoon is created by Nick Saban’s aura of mystery and power in one of the most extraordinary settings in college football.
