As a Crimson Tide fan i Have Not forgot how much fun it was to see him fumble his 1st snap, rally, maintain composure and like the Pink Panther groove to assist and score MANY TOUCHDOWNS !! RTR
Roll Tide World MF'in Wide ! I always said the same thing. Bama would have been a team to most assuredly reckon with. It would have been an undefeated season + Natl title for sure.
Yea this is why I will never believe all the "this defense will be as good as 2016 defense" crap. As long as we have Pete Golding it will never change.
sickest bama defense i have ever seen. insane athleticism, they played hatefully and angry, and they were incredibly smart. they can transition into blockers for a safety with a pick in an instant. this defense was definitely a #rarebreed
This defense reminded me a lot of the 92-93 defense when they won the natty under Gene Stallings. Straight up hateful, inhumanly athletic, smart, you name it. I will say it seemed like they lost a bit of their identity when Eddie Jackson got hurt. Still, in my opinion, one of the best defenses of all time
In my eyes , the defense did their job this year.. offense scored off of QB runs and RB runs.. we weren't deadly with our passing game and definitely overthrew alot of passes during the championship game.
Every player that started on this defense went to the NFL, big names include Eddie Jackson, minkah Fitzpatrick, marlon Humphrey, Jonathan Allen Ruben foster, for the first 4 games the defense had scored more points then the offense which is insane to think about.
Their discipline is so intact that you are even able to see it when they celebrate!!! Calmed chaos!!! Simply RAVENOUS!! ALWAYS ALWAYS ALWAYS BET ON DEFENSE!!!! Thanks for the hundreds of dollars throughout the seasons BAMA D!!
id like to see or hear all of the BAMA haters talk shit to Alabama players like Reuben Foster Ryan Anderson Tim Williams Minkah Fitzpatrick or Jonathan Allen or Nick Saban seriously don't just say to one of them say it to their faces Roll tide
Great compilation of Defense with Awesome background music. Gracias, King Gosa! This was a great season and I yelled and pulled for them all season that year. My family and I are huge Tide fans. Saban really turned this team around when he arrived and we're all grateful. My daughter-in-law graduated from there. When they lose a game, I do not scream foul but say, the "other team won fair and square." This 2020/21 season, we won fair and square. A couple of close games, but we won at the end. God bless the players, coaches, and everyone during this 2021 season. To ALL, Stay well and healthy!
We have to pick it back up this year. Every recruiting class since saban was hired has won a natty. That team that beat Michigan st in the outback bowl should have won it all as well.
Come back 2016 defense!!! Eddie Jackson, Johnathan Allen, Reuben Foster etc etc.... It's sad we have to go back 6 years to see what an Alabama defense looks like
This 2023 bunch may just be mentioned in the same breath with these Cats if they continue to improve each week! Defense Wins Championships....with a little help from their "Friends" The Offense. Let's Go!
On of the best, if not the best defense in cfb history. Without a doubt the best under Saban (including the special teams) of the 16-17. Such a shame this defense had to lose the Natty on a dirty ass pick play in 16-17
King Gosa Scary exciting. No one will ever truly understand how good this defense was... 3 1st round picks, 2 2nd round picks a pick a piece In 3rd and 4th rounds. Just last year on that defense! And 2 more will go in the first round (that played last year), with more following this year. Which puts this defense potentially having 5-6 first rounders in all.... scary!
its honestly sickening to see how utterly dominant that the defense was against clemson through 3 quarters and if the offense is just mediocre then we will be 10+, but Jalen was 100% lost out there for most of the game. Just such a shame, that defense deserves the title!
This is the 2016 team. Stat wise they were better in 2017 and won the Natty. Both years they lead the nation in allowed PTS/G = 11.8. 2nd in nation total defense. Led by Jeremy Pruitt. Impressive. Pruitt should have stayed put.
Remember when Wash-Huski student/fans started that chant; "We want Bama..?" LOL! Guess they learned what real-top-level-football was when they finally got their wish... LOL
i put this defense over the 2011 because the talent was insane...like 20 NFL starters, 8 first round picks, 7 pro bowlers and 5 AP in current day but they were feared Fitz, MH, Ronnie, Averette, Evans, Ham, Foster, Payne,Dalvin, Allen, Hand, Anderson with Diggs, QWill, RaeDavis, Jennings, Mack on the bench is unfair
Wonder if we will ever see another defense like that one again? That just might have been one of the best defenses in Div-1 play, if not top 2 or 3... Nah, probably the best ever. Sports writer were definately not fair to these fellas.
Bama defense chose to be a offensive by taking the ball and scoring. That's a mentality you never see. Our defense at this time in the v8deo outscored some offensive teams . This was the good days when bama were guaranteed to get 3 interceptions per game.
This was the most stacked defense ever! Even though they lost the title I still think this was one of the best college teams ever
Only reason they lost was because Eddie Jackson didn’t play due to injury
Tyron Mitchell it was because jalen couldn’t move the ball on offense and our D was on the field for 99 plays
Musashi Miyamoto whe Jalen walked off the field Bama was in the lead
It was definitely the best and most talented defense under coach Saban
LSU In 2011
It was a great year. Undoubtedly one of the greatest college defenses of all time.
Michael Little too bad the offense was an abysmal against good teams.
With a Defense that good...who cares?
Justin A Yup that was jalens fault
Hang On, Hang On ...as to Jalen Hurts...Let us not forget the fact that he started @ the QB position for over 30 games and lost only 2 !!!
As a Crimson Tide fan i Have Not forgot how much fun it was to see him fumble his 1st snap, rally, maintain composure and like the Pink Panther groove to assist and score MANY TOUCHDOWNS !! RTR
Reuben Foster's Helicopter Hit On Deshaun Watson Is Arguably A Top 5 Hit Of All Time
njnnnmnm its one of my favorit for sure hahah
It still blows my mind that everyone on the starting squad is in the NFL
Is doing good* in the nfl
And my Redskins got like 5 of them
And 2/3 of the second team got drafted
Imagine Alabama with Tua and our offense playing with this defense,.....Bring on the Buffalo Bills damnit !
Roll Tide World MF'in Wide ! I always said the same thing. Bama would have been a team to most assuredly reckon with. It would have been an undefeated season + Natl title for sure.
The bills......would smash Alabama 50-7 at the most
Crazy to think all these guys are drafted in the nfl. All 11 starters
Isaac Acosta lifts one was all pro “Eddie Jackson “ and minkah and marlon gonna go all pro
Had to come back to get some happiness Just looking at how great our defense was compared to this year😢
Yea this is why I will never believe all the "this defense will be as good as 2016 defense" crap. As long as we have Pete Golding it will never change.
@@Ty_PaulHe Gone 😁😁😁😁
@@mbf334 🙏🏻
@@mbf334 lol
Good thing the defense this year was way better! RTR
That was the most talented defensive team you will ever see assembled at Bama. So many points contributed, turnovers, and just shear tenacity!

Still, in my opinion, one of the best defenses of all time
This defense had my heart.
Imagine if Tua had this defense on the other side
@@mroerled they would've destroyed Clemson
Greatest Bama defense EVER.
Eddie Jackson & Scarbrough injury was the difference in the title game
Man, I come back often to watch the meanest defense Bama ever put on the field. I hope and pray we get somewhere close to this defense one day!!
This bama defense has pride best damn defense in bama history.. i miss this defense
Imagine this defense and the 2019 offense
They would win so many nattys
In my eyes , the defense did their job this year.. offense scored off of QB runs and RB runs.. we weren't deadly with our passing game and definitely overthrew alot of passes during the championship game.
That's every year for Bama
ronnie harrison is all over the place, looks like a really goid player
I miss Reuben and Fitzpatrick ... and Jackson and Humphrey and Allen and Williams and Harrison and diggs
So pretty much 2016 lol
Hamilton was so underrated as a linebacker. When he went down in the SEC Championship it really hurt us in the Natty.
People always forget about SDH, dude was really good
Every player that started on this defense went to the NFL, big names include Eddie Jackson, minkah Fitzpatrick, marlon Humphrey, Jonathan Allen Ruben foster, for the first 4 games the defense had scored more points then the offense which is insane to think about.
next year i think we will be even more athletic and younger
I would wanna see 2016 defense vs 2019 0r 2020 offense that would be a good game
Imagine Bamas 2020 offense with the Bama 2016 defense
One of the best bama defense’s i’ve ever seen. They were creatures out there.
that 4 man rush was a nightmare
this defense made pressure soon that ball was snapped the qbs couldn't do a thing
Leaders like Eddie and Minkah in the backend is what we miss
The fact bama won 2 natties from 2015-2017 and this team wasn’t either one of those is insane to me.
Their discipline is so intact that you are even able to see it when they celebrate!!! Calmed chaos!!! Simply RAVENOUS!! ALWAYS ALWAYS ALWAYS BET ON DEFENSE!!!! Thanks for the hundreds of dollars throughout the seasons BAMA D!!
This defense and the 2008/2009 defense was the best
id like to see or hear all of the BAMA haters talk shit to Alabama players like Reuben Foster Ryan Anderson Tim Williams Minkah Fitzpatrick or Jonathan Allen or Nick Saban seriously don't just say to one of them say it to their faces Roll tide
Jeff Lana I'd say it to Saban's face right after I punched it
Lot's of these guys are still showing out in the NFL. What a great bunch of guys. From this to our defense last few yrs, how sad.
Great compilation of Defense with Awesome background music. Gracias, King Gosa! This was a great season and I yelled and pulled for them all season that year. My family and I are huge Tide fans.

Almost 6 years later and I still watch this video maybe twice a month
This defense was a nightmare
as an Alabama fan its sad to see that defense compared to the one we have now i miss them
Dont worry. Im from a year in the future and theyre looking more and more like a classical alabama defense.
Also from the future, the defense got the job done
Greatest defensive unit in have ever laid my eyes on including nfl
I get goose bumps watching this video....
Now that was an awesome display of Alabama defense!!! Great video!!!
As a canes fan this is what our defense used to be in the 80s and 90s this bama defesne was some of the best all time
Great bama highlights like always bro. Defense, my favorite part of football. Roll Tide!
The simple fact that you could WITHOUT A DOUBT, put your LIFE on it that the defense would score atleast one time every game
Watching this after Bama gave up 52 points to Tennessee - god do I miss this defense
Me too 🥲
Our defense low key nice this year tho.
Jesus christ I forgot how insane the defense was this year. They blew up pocket after pocket. The instant reads are super impressive too.
Almost all of these guys are well known NFL players now... this bama teams is one of the best ever.
Awesome video! Next year we will roll better!
Rueben Foster’s football IQ is nuts. He is always around the ball
next year I'm hoping for the best. we went out fighting, I will miss a lot of our defense.
Marlon Humphrey a damn fool for that hit.
Watching videos like these make you wonder if these guys are human.
Individually, yes. Collectively, no.
Imagine if they had the offense they have now with this defense 🤯
They had that offense , but the Wrong QB
@@deepickett3954 yep too many overthrows
Pete Golding couldn't field a defense a fraction this good.
We have to pick it back up this year. Every recruiting class since saban was hired has won a natty. That team that beat Michigan st in the outback bowl should have won it all as well.
Came here after the Texas game just so I can remember what it feels like to see dawgs play some ball
Bro you clutch af for this
three years later this shit still gets my blood going
Congrats Alabama good season Clemson
What a scary defense....Roll tide baby
Wow can't wait for this year team.
This entire defence is in the NFL lmao crazy.
Damn i miss the good ole days
best college defense ever without debate
Miss this🥺
Come back 2016 defense!!! Eddie Jackson, Johnathan Allen, Reuben Foster etc etc.... It's sad we have to go back 6 years to see what an Alabama defense looks like
This 2023 bunch may just be mentioned in the same breath with these Cats if they continue to improve each week! Defense Wins Championships....with a little help from their "Friends" The Offense. Let's Go!
I wish we had this defense this year
Favorite team Alabama roll tide roll tide
On of the best, if not the best defense in cfb history. Without a doubt the best under Saban (including the special teams) of the 16-17. Such a shame this defense had to lose the Natty on a dirty ass pick play in 16-17

MrHarrytj pure studs
great video bra
1992 Alabama defense was the greatest.Alabama defense ever .end of the debate
Anyone know how many players on the 2016 Defense starters and backup got drafted in the NFL? It has to be between 25-30.
Let's get it 💪 BAMA and RollTide
Absolutely dominant
Best defense we ever had
Where did you get the beat in your outro
Roll Damn Tide 1x! #17 in 2017 is a go !
its honestly sickening to see how utterly dominant that the defense was against clemson through 3 quarters and if the offense is just mediocre then we will be 10+, but Jalen was 100% lost out there for most of the game. Just such a shame, that defense deserves the title!
This is the 2016 team. Stat wise they were better in 2017 and won the Natty. Both years they lead the nation in allowed PTS/G = 11.8. 2nd in nation total defense. Led by Jeremy Pruitt. Impressive. Pruitt should have stayed put.
Remember when Wash-Huski student/fans started that chant; "We want Bama..?" LOL! Guess they learned what real-top-level-football was when they finally got their wish... LOL
I think maybe the greatest Alabama defense in school history.
Oh how things have changed in 7 years. Roll Tide!
First beat?
They had 3 1st team all pros just in their secondary😳
Best defense ever assembled
Reuben foster was already playing on an NFL level.
i put this defense over the 2011 because the talent was insane...like 20 NFL starters, 8 first round picks, 7 pro bowlers and 5 AP in current day but they were feared Fitz, MH, Ronnie, Averette, Evans, Ham, Foster, Payne,Dalvin, Allen, Hand, Anderson with Diggs, QWill, RaeDavis, Jennings, Mack on the bench is unfair
and eddie geez thats 4 pro bowlers and all pro in one secondary
I wish I could have this defense back
That year was all defense no damm offense
It's like watching the Washington Redskins defense 2020.
Ive hated Bama for the longest...this 2016 defense changed that
Wonder if we will ever see another defense like that one again? That just might have been one of the best defenses in Div-1 play, if not top 2 or 3... Nah, probably the best ever. Sports writer were definately not fair to these fellas.
10:03 My favorite Interception of the year! LOL!
9:11 ROFL! I love that about to get Safety Sack throws it away oh, wait no! Interception! LMAO!
Who's here getting nostalgia comfort after 2020 Ole Miss Game?
Me. Our defense now is just embarrassing. This video almost brings tears to my eyes lol
Them dudes were scary 🥶
Bama defense chose to be a offensive by taking the ball and scoring. That's a mentality you never see. Our defense at this time in the v8deo outscored some offensive teams . This was the good days when bama were guaranteed to get 3 interceptions per game.
USC really went for it on 4th and 7 in the first quarter lol
nice vid
You Are Right.:-)
ROLL TIDE ROLL!!! 🏈🏈🐘🔥
I think that entire starting defense went to the NFL
