Bear Bryant
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
Offense sells tickets, but defense wins championships.
Bear Bryant
Mama wanted me to be a preacher. I told her coachin' and preachin' were a lot alike.
Bear Bryant
No coach has ever won a game by what he knows it's what his players know that counts.
Bear Bryant
