6-for-6

Alabama fans have embraced the power of the Internet once again, with Matt Caddell's game-winning touchdown catch earning the "Pontiac Game-Changing Performance of the Week" through voting on ESPN.com.

Winning the weekly award earns Alabama $5,000 for its general scholarship fund and makes the school eligible for the $100,000 Pontiac Game-Changing Performance of the Year award at the end of the season. Alabama is now 6-for-6 all-time in Pontiac Game-Changer voting, telling us perhaps that whatever you might say about Crimson Tide fans, they certainly know their way around the Internet.

Alabama won four weekly awards in 2005, as well as the yearly grand prize. That honor went to Tyrone Prothro's memorable acrobatic catch against Southern Miss that season.
