  3. Well well well, things are looking good for Saban once again. Love how he’s pissed with :13 on the clock in the 4th quarter and they’re up over Texas A&M 45 to 23 haha. The man is insane….ly good!

  4. Talk about the luxury of a QB controversy. Nick Saban will always be remembered for how great he handles QB controversy by looking back at that Championship game but more importantly how he’s handling this year with Tua Tagovailoa and Jalen Hurts. Quite the general.

  5. Do you think Nick Saban ever gets tired of winning? This program is just a factory of talent over the years and it’s been a real thrill to follow the past few years. I hope Saban continues to coach until he’s 80 years old as he clearly has the talent, drive and the skillset to do so. What a leader!
