2011 Twice
2012- got them at home again and dare I say we should have the more talented team.

That would be pretty fricking fantastic.

Yes, but it will be hysterical. So much for them having a "better" coach!

Tha frick?


As much as some LSU fans act like we're Bama's rival, it's not like we're Auburn. Christ....

as long as he doesn't lose to auburn four times in a row, he's safe.

This would be near just as bad. Saban is paid to win these games, not lose them. Why pay a coach saban's salary and still be losing, you can do that for half the cost.

They built him a statue so they could worship him year round. They aren't getting rid of him.

If he loses this go round the gumps are going to eb VERY restless. I can honestly see him bolt for Texas. The "Lull" is coming. Can he avoid it?

Building a #2 team usually looks good for head coahces, even though bama is just a sham with no meaninful wins this year

No, he won't lose his job. They'll just erect another statue next to Nicky. One of Miles holding his leash.

They have lost 9 out of the last 12 to LSU and we are about to make that 10 outta 13 for a National Title...they really should be getting comfortable with losing to LSU.

Who replaces him?
Forget the bear, you are talking about replacing a coach who won NCs at 2 schools in the same decade and lost in the Title game to the #1 team (twice by being in the same division).

I think he is there till he retires and they are not going to or wanting to kick him out.

I believe LSU has a real good chance at beating Bama (and lil Nicky) 4 times in a row... FACT.

Will that have an impact on Saban's job security.... NO!

For goodness sake -- they are playing for (and could well win) the National Championship this year.

LSU could beat them next year but lose 2 other games and Bama could be playing for the National Championship again NEXT year....

If (and only IF) they fall to mediocrity --- year in and year out 3rd or lower in the SEC WEST would they consider "firing" Nicky....

But that's not to say that the callers to the PF show wouldn't be suggesting "the game has passed him by" if he did lose to LSU 4 times in a row... Saban would quit to move on to even greener pastures if that occurred... but the administration will not fire him, I just can not see that ever happening.

I don't remember his contract but I'm sure there is a buyout. Who would they replace him with?

Saban will be the next coach in Austin. Bama will go after Harbaugh,Belichick,Mike McCarthy, and Peyton. This is only if the Bear is still not available

Sorry bro, but this is not John Cooper we're talking here.

And considering how much power he has at Bama, he'll have no problem staying employed.
