MIAMI SHORES, Fla. -- The Alabama football team
wrapped up its final preparations for top-ranked Notre Dame with a two
hour practice, Saturday afternoon at Barry University. The Crimson Tide
will hold a walk-thru at Sun Life Stadium on Sunday.
"I would like to thank the Orange Bowl committee and everybody here
in South Florida for the great hospitality that they have provided our
team," Alabama head coach Nick Saban
said. "As a team we certainly embrace the challenges that every season
brings. We are here to try and take advantage of a great opportunity
that the players have created for themselves."
Alabama got its day started once again in front of the cameras, this
time at the BCS Championship Media Day. The whole team and coaching
staff participated at the event that was held at the site of the
championship game.
The Tide will meet the Irish in Miami Gardens, Fla., on Monday, Jan.
7, to determine the national champion. ESPN will carry the matchup with
Brent Musburger and Kirk Herbstreit calling the action and Tom Rinaldi
and Heather Cox reporting from the sideline.
