TUSCALOOSA, Alabama - Mammoth Terrence Cody and little Leigh
Tiffin saved Alabama's perfect record.
Cody blocked a 44-yard field-goal attempt on the final play, his
second blocked field goal in the fourth quarter, and the Crimson
Tide escaped with a 12-10 victory over rival Tennessee on Saturday.
Cody broke through the line on the last play and practically ran
into Daniel Lincoln's low kick.
Tiffin booted four field goals - including a 50-yarder and a
49-yarder - and the Tide (8-0, 5-0 Southeastern Conference)
survived Mark Ingram's first college fumble and some problems for
the nation's top defense.
Tennessee (3-4, 1-3) kept alive its hopes for Lane Kiffin's
first huge victory with Eric Berry's fumble recovery and Jonathan
Crompton's 11-yard touchdown pass to Gerald Jones with 1:19 left.
Then Tennessee recovered the onside kick.

The game was agonizing to watch!!! Thank goodness Mount Cody and Tiffin were on their “A” game because I was getting nervous. But a win is win all day long - Roll Tide Roll !!!!
