The University of Alabama athletic system may not have gotten a chance to use their new LED lights inside Bryant Denny Stadium this season yet, but on Wednesday night, it was used for something bigger.
Bryant Denny was lit up with the color blue to honor fallen Tuscaloosa police officer, Darnell Cousette, who served 13 years with the TPD.
