There have been a lot of great moments in the history of Alabama football. Recently, former Alabama tailback Josh Jacobs relived his favorite moment from his time in Tuscaloosa on an episode of “The Pivot Podcast”.
“Definitely Oklahoma for sure,” Jacobs said, “Like the Oklahoma game, playing the town — everybody from where I’m from was making bets against me. Everybody was like “You not gone win.””
Coming out of high school, Jacobs chose Alabama over Oklahoma. He spurned the in-state Sooners for the Crimson Tide. That could be one of the key reasons for why a lot of his friends were willing to bet against him during the 2018 Orange Bowl.
