BUILT BY BAMA: Jalen Hurts, DeVonta Smith, and Landon Dickerson Lead Eagles to Super Bowl Glory Over Chiefs in New Orleans
NEW ORLEANS — In a showdown for the ages, the Philadelphia Eagles soared to Super Bowl glory with a dramatic 34–30 victory over the Kansas City Chiefs — and at the heart of it all were three Alabama legends: Jalen Hurts, DeVonta Smith, and Landon Dickerson.
From Tuscaloosa to the top of the NFL world, this trio proved what “Built by Bama” truly means. Quarterback Jalen Hurts, playing with poise and fire, threw for 312 yards and 3 touchdowns, including a game-winning strike with under two minutes remaining. Wideout DeVonta Smith, the 2020 Heisman Trophy winner, was electric—hauling in 9 catches for 144 yards and a touchdown, slicing through the Chiefs secondary like a surgeon. And anchoring it all was offensive lineman Landon Dickerson, who delivered a flawless performance protecting his former Alabama teammate on the NFL’s biggest stage.
What made this win so poetic wasn’t just the final score—it was how Alabama’s alumni turned a high-pressure Super Bowl into a Crimson Tide masterclass. From their grit to their unshakable chemistry, it felt like a flashback to Saturdays in Bryant-Denny Stadium.
Hurts’ postgame remarks said it best: “This win? It started back at Bama. That’s where we learned to win. That’s where we became family.”
With this victory, the Eagles have captured their second Super Bowl in franchise history — and Alabama has further cemented its dynasty as a true NFL pipeline. For Bama fans, this wasn’t just a Super Bowl win.
It was Crimson redemption.
It was legacy.
It was built by Bama.
