The Bodda Getta

***Wallace said he never imagined last year when he was playing high school football that he would be starting the Iron Bowl this Saturday.

"It's really a blessing," Wallace said. "...I really can't describe it. I was given this opportunity and couldn't pass it up."

***Wallace has never attended an Iron Bowl in-person but has watched them on T.V.

***Wallace is expecting an unreal atmosphere in Tuscaloosa.

***Wallace said he started to be an Auburn fan once he went to high school. He wasn't really a fan of either school before then.

***Wallace said Alabama runs everything you could imagine as a defense. He said they will have to take it a play at a time.

***Wallace said what happens in this game is always remembered and talked about 20, 30 years from now.

"It's that important," he said.
