The Alabama Crimson Tide was the No. 1 overall seed in the 2023 NCAA Tournament, but the mighty Mountain West San Diego State Aztecs were not intimidated.

There was no Nick Saban, no marching band, and no Heisman Trophy highlights, but there was an Alabama Crimson Tide team ranked No. 1 and the Twitter masses gleefully celebrated their elimination from the NCAA Tournament.

When you’re Alabama and there’s a “No. 1” in front of your name, the hate will flow like the dark side of the force in the Twitterverse.

Let’s compare failures first, shall we?

And now, a word from those not-necessarily Bama fans who had them advancing in their brackets.

You had to know Brandon Miller would be targeted.

Hearing the “Big fat phony” character from Family Guy when I read this tweet.

For those of you wanting a musical number…

And let’s close with the Bama fan who cursed it all for the Tide.

No matter how you slice it, when Alabama loses…in any sport…America seems to win.
