Alabama found itself 79 yards away from the endzone, down one point with eight minutes left in game on The Plains. Alabama's offense led by Greg McElroy, Mark Ingram, Julio Jones and Trent Richardson got in gear and made what is now known to many as "The Drive".

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.
