Bear Bryant was buried in Birmingham because he had family there. Although he was the most popular head coach of Alabama, he chose to be buried in Birmingham instead of Tuscaloosa. I myself am a Alabama fan. A huge Bear Bryant fan. Anything that has to do with Alabama football, I love.

Bear Bryant first sec lost at home?

1) Bryant was head coach of the University of Kentucky between 1946-1953. His first SEC loss at Lexington was November 1, 1947 against Alabama, 13-0. 2) Bryant was head coach of the University of Alabama between 1958-1982. His first SEC loss at home was November 29, 1958 to Auburn, 14-8, in Birmingham. Removing the Auburn games from the mix, since those games at the time were all played in Birmingham and Auburn would play at least one home game in Birmingham each year, the first SEC team he lost to other than Auburn at home was Florida on October 6, 1963 by the score of 10-6. That game was played in Tuscaloosa.
