Sure, I'd love to beat Notre Dame, don't get me wrong. But nothing matters more than beating that cow college on the other side of the state!
Bear Bryant
Image
My approach to the game has been the same at all the places I've been. Vanilla. The sure way. That means, first of all, to win physically. If you got eleven on a field, and they beat the other eleven physically, they'll win. They will start forcing mistakes. They'll win in the fourth quarter.

Don't talk too much or too soon.

Image
If you believe in yourself and have dedication and pride - and never quit, you'll be a winner. The price of victory is high but so are the rewards.
Bear Bryant
Image
I make my practices real hard because if a player is a quitter, I want him to quit in practice, not in a game.

If you don't learn anything but self discipline, then athletics is worthwhile.
Bear Bryant
Image
You're still going to win with preparation and dedication and plain old desire. If you don't have genuine desire, you won't be dedicated enough to prepare properly.

If it is worth playing, it is worth paying the price to win.

If you are going to be a successful duck hunter, you must go where the ducks are.

Everybody's got pretty good players now, more players than there've ever been. If you play poorly, you're going to get beat.
Bear Bryant
Image
You take those little rascals, talk to them good, pat them on the back, let them think they are good, and they will go out and beat the biguns.
Bear Bryant
Image
If a man is a quitter, I'd rather find out in practice than in a game. I ask for all a player has so I'll know later what I can expect.
Bear Bryant
Image
I'll put you through hell, but at the end of it all we'll be champions.

Image
Georgia Tech beat us and Mississippi Southern tied us last year, and Texas beat us after we had the game won. We only played about five games the way we were capable of playing and lost one of those.
Bear Bryant
Image
I ain't won but one. My team won the rest in spite of me.

There's no substitute for guts.

Back 12 years ago, when Dr. Mathews was president here, we had a plan that when I got ready to quit, we'd bring a certain guy in and he'd take over that day and I'd leave. But as time wore on, I realized that wouldn't have been good at all.

I've made so many mistakes that if I don't make the same mistakes over, we're going to come pretty close to winning.

Don't overwork your squad. If you're going to make a mistake, under-work them.
