The guy is just trying to better college football.

quote:

During his weekly radio show Thursday night, Saban said he would like Southeastern Conference teams to play nine league games instead of the current eight. And for non-conference games, there would be 60 or 70 major teams, and they would be required to play each other


quote:

“Not many coaches agree with me because they want to be able to win certain games,” Saban said. “Some teams that want to be bowl-eligible don’t agree with me, either.”

The Tide coach added he realizes his idea isn’t popular among his colleagues. He voiced his dislike of conference realignment, too, “but nobody listens to what I say.”

Win certain games?


In other words I want an extra game so we can add Vanderbilt to the schedule and make our schedule easier than it already is..

Isn't this the same sissy who whined about up-tempo offenses after playing Ole Miss?

60 years ago this same guy would have been against the forward pass and given reasons as to why it's ruining college football.
