When you play defense you have to storm the fort or play cover - you can't do both.
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.

I ain't won but one. My team won the rest in spite of me.
Bear Bryant
Image
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

There's a lot of blood, sweat, and guts between dreams and success.

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!

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.

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.
Bear Bryant
Image
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.
Bear Bryant
Image
I'll put you through hell, but at the end of it all we'll be champions.

They say I teach brutal football, but the only thing brutal about football is losing.

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