Nine years ago today, #2 Alabama defeated #1 Clemson 45-40, capturing Nick Saban's fourth National Championship at Alabama.

What a thrilling game it was! @marlon_humphrey 's onside kick recovery was crucial for stealing a possession when Alabama needed it the most. Kenyan Drake's (@KDx32) 95-yard kickoff return for a touchdown added to the excitement, and @KingHenry_2  Derrick Henry carried the ball 36 times for 158 yards.

During that season, I had never seen one player carry his team as Derrick Henry did in 2015. With injuries forcing the Crimson Tide to rely on his endurance, Henry shattered Shaun Alexander's single-season carries record by 90 attempts (Alexander had 305, while Henry finished with 395). He totaled 395 carries for 2,219 yards, breaking the single-season records previously held by Herschel Walker and Bo Jackson.

Roll Tide Roll!
