He’s definitely been going in CFB raw. I think people are just butthurt because it’s Alabama, a program that’s pretty much universally hated. If only he was running shite at Kentucky..

Kills me that he had the NFL itch while at LSU. This could be LSU right now.

Every single one of his recruiting classes going back to his first year at LSU have won a national title game. That's insane.

But Tua isn't mediocre and it showed tonight.

However, for most of his teams, you're right.

Meh he really wasn't great tonight. He won the game and deserves the credit, but he had some really suspect plays. The pick was terrible and the last TD to Ridley wasn't even thrown to him.

Those aren't negative comments, the kids a freshman backup that just won the Natty, but it's not like he went in and just lit it up. Perfect combo of being competent and having things bounce your way.

2009 - gets beat if McCoy doesn't get hurt
2011 - backed into game without winning division
2012 - legitimate, but needed last second drive vs lsu.
2015 - legitimate
2017- backed into the game without winning division


2012 was not legitimate.

This wasn't a touchdown. It was called incomplete on the field. After review, SEC refs disguised as PAC-12 refs overturned it. If Oregon wins, Bama isn't in the NCG.

With the Uber competitiveness and money involved now it's absolutely incredible. We really don't understand what him ans Belechick are doing, IMO. Only one playoff team from last year in the NFC made the playoffs again this year and Belechick makes it to the Superbowl every year. Then you have saban. The two greatest coaches in any sport ever in my estimation.


It's just one great coach. Saba stole all of his stuff from belicheck and simply applied it to college while cheating in recruiting

Saban is the best and it isn’t even close. He is doing it at a time where scholarships are limited and competition and parity are at all time highs. What he has accomplished is truly remarkable.

2018 Alabama will be the biggest National Title favorite in modern history.

Saban hasn't coached under Belechick in over 20 years. Football if today barely even resembles what it did back then so your little spinning diatribe is retarded.

how many coaches have the stones at halftime to say "This isn't working, we're down 13. Let's pull a QB who's led us to 2 national championship games for a true freshman QB."

This level of dominance is unspeakably ridiculous.

He belongs in the NFL

Been saying it for years

He's the equivalent of someone playing a video game on easy and giving all his players 99 ratings. Its barely a challenge for him.

this is what sucks

can't fault him for giving the NFL a go

but why'd he have to come back to our same division?

also... think Drew Brees 2006 free agency again... what if MIA docs clear Drew and the Dolphins sign him? Alabama doesn't have all these Nattys... Saints don't have their Lombardi Trophy

I think Belichick is a notch above, considering free agency and what not, but yeah, Saban is 1B.
