"And let's get outta here and go to the Final Four," Stewart yelled on the radio call of the final seconds of Alabama's 89-82 win.

Stewart's call was a callback to Alabama football's last-second win over Texas A&M in 2022, when the Crimson Tide held off the Aggies in the final seconds, 24-20.

Prior to Alabama's Elite Eight game against Clemson, March Madness TV aired the story of Stewart surviving a stroke which gave way to a myriad of other health problems. The emotional story showed how close Stewart came to missing this moment altogether.

Stewart being on the call for Alabama's first ever Final Four appearance is, in his words, a "miracle." And now the Tide is out of Los Angeles on its way to Phoenix.
