Senator Katie Britt Discusses Alabama Crimson Tide Football

U.S. Senator Katie Britt shared her thoughts on Alabama Crimson Tide football during an interview on The Dale Jackson Show on Wednesday morning.

While standing in an oval office with President Donald Trump and a Republican from the Alabama State Legislature, Britt (R-Montgomery) voiced her disappointment with Alabama’s Saturday game against Florida, which ended 31-17. Trump mentioned Britt’s home state by saying he would be moving permanently to Huntsville.

In response to the game’s outcome, Trump remarked, “I won’t say anything about what happened in Alabama football this weekend. But you’re not used to it.” Britt reflected on this, saying, “The president certainly had a lot to work with after what he witnessed Saturday. When he started bringing it up, I thought, ‘Oh no, please don’t go there.’ It truly feels unfamiliar territory for many of us, at least recently.”

Britt, a proud Crimson Tide supporter, also noted that several Senate colleagues reached out to her following the game. “I spoke with JD Vance recently; he took a jab at our performance. It seems some good-natured ribbing is in order, even from those as far away as North Dakota,” she mentioned.

As the season progresses, many fans are anxious about upcoming games, including matchups against Georgia, South Carolina, and LSU. Britt emphasized, “We know there’s a lot of talent out there. The University of Alabama carries an incredible tradition and history, and it’s crucial for them to embody that on the field.”

Alabama is set to face the University of Louisiana Monroe at home in Tuscaloosa this Saturday.
