To his credit Bear Bryant, the late, great coach of Alabama, arranged a series of games against USC. Alabama usually lost, mostly because of the large number of great players who had left the state of Alabama to go to and play for USC. Bear was able to make that point to the alumni, and was able to resolve the naked discrimination which had previously kept blacks from Alabama from attending school there and playing on the football team.
Roll Tide!
