Alabama vs Texas

In the long history of both Alabama and Texas football there have only been eight meetings between the two teams - three regular season matchups and five bowl games.

The first game was held in Tuscaloosa 1902 and the most recent was the 1982 Cotton Bowl. Alabama has never won against the Longhorns.

The Crimson Tide hopes to bring that streak to an end on Jan. 7, 2010 when the two teams will go head-to-head in the BCS National Championship game at the Rose Bowl in Pasadena, California.

In anticipation of that event I am taking a look back over the historical matchups between the two teams over at Roll Bama Roll. A list of the entries including direct links is after the jump.
