It was the most costly coaching decision of the night, but not the worst. That honor belongs to Saban, who raised eyebrows by taking the ball to start the game instead of deferring -- then ordered up a you-cannot-be-serious fake punt on fourth-and-23 from the Alabama 20.
From ESPN re: Saban's decisions.

Similar to our fake punt in 04 at ASU except that UT was ready for it.
Also, if the punter had thrown it well it would have been successful. I'm not saying you expect the punter to make a great throw, but it would have worked as designed.
Good thing for Saban is that he's built a strong enough team that it didn't matter.
