They finished the season with a record of nine wins and three losses (9\u20133 overall, 4\u20133 in the SEC) and with a victory in the Sun Bowl over Army. Alabama suffered close losses to rivals LSU and Auburn in November but the low point of the season was a 22\u201312 loss on homecoming to Ole Miss, Alabama's first ever loss against Ole Miss in the state of Alabama. Alabama had zero yards passing in the game. Highlights included a victory over Penn State, Alabama's third consecutive victory over Tennessee, and a come-from-behind 29\u201328 victory in the Sun Bowl over Army in which quarterback David Smith threw for 412 yards, an all-time bowl record for an Alabama quarterback. Alabama's road game against Texas A&M, originally scheduled for September 17, was postponed to December 1 when Coach Curry declined to make the trip, worried about oncoming Hurricane Gilbert. When Gilbert made landfall in Mexico and the weather in College Station was clear on gameday, A&M fans called Alabama's coach \"Chicken Curry\". Alabama won the rescheduled game on December 1 by a final score of 30\u201310."@en . "no"@en .
