Why are Saban coached teams incapable of playing with the lead?

They lose every week?

RJYH, this loss was the most painful I can remember in 31 years of my life. The statement you just made was based on that and not very sound logic. We've played and won with the lead 35 of the last 40 games, won 2 West titles, 1 S.E.C Title, and 1 National Title over the course of 3 football seasons. This will pass and we will come back and win again. This game is a game of inches. A few plays go differently like the Ingram 25yd fumble, Trent's drop, or GMac's fumble, and we are all witnesses to the worst beatdown in Iron Bowl history and the thread would be a million pages about Saban being the best coach in football. However it didn't play out that way, AU played with a lot of heart and won. Congrats to them, but don't let the pain fool you into dumb comments about what I feel is still the best coach in the country.

What the heck are you talking about. We have leadership issues on this team. We did pretty good the two years before that.

The process being that after a national championship year Saban coaches like he doesn't give a shite and then leaves for another job.
