On this day in 2010, the Crimson Tide's dynasty began with Alabama's victory over Texas in the Rose Bowl National Championship to claim their first title since 1992.
The game-winning score came on a 4-yard play-action pass from McElroy to senior running back Roy Upchurch. Then freshman sensation, Richardson touched the ball on the three prior plays for the Tide, one on screen and two rushes out of the backfield.
Former Alabama quarterback and 2010 BCS National Champion Greg McElroy has joined ESPN as a college football analyst for SEC Network launching August 14, 2014.
