Thousands were inundated Wednesday with memes or GIF’s on various social media platforms by the iconic Kick Six post announcing that the upcoming season begins in 109 days. However, it means something totally different to Alabama’s two flagship programs.
The University of Alabama has won four national championships in eight years, including the second College Football Playoff, and is the only team to appear in all three playoffs. It came one second short of winning the 2016 CFP. The Tide has also won three consecutive Iron Bowls and seven of the last nine. So, the Kick Six to them is a distant and unpleasant memory.
