Saban will win as many titles from now until he retires than LSU will have won in their history. Bookmark it.

Where were you when the "Bama fans don't make outlandish predictions" thread was rolling?

Let's be honest. Not all 67 year olds are alike.


No, they aren't. But you're kidding yourself if you think Saban can outcoach Father Time

But it's not outlandish. He's already done more in the last 8 seasons

Man y'all are so touchy and defensive at the mere idea of Saban not being what he is forever and ever it makes me wonder how hard the melt really is going to be when the day comes here in the next 5 or so years

Because they know that whoever his replacement turns out to be, there's almost a 0% chance he has anywhere near the same level of success as Saban

He also has a burning desire to go out as the GOAT so he will be coaching for awhile. He wants to knock Bryant off his throne. So, this train ain't slowing down for any time soon.


I think most people already consider him better than Bryant.

And that's great about his desire and all. But do you really think Nick Saban is the first coach with a burning desire to go out on top? Those are the ones that always overstay their welcome. Just because he wants to do something doesn't mean he will.

Maybe the cracks in Saban's armor aren't showing and vulnerable yet, but the shine is definitely starting to wear off. Teams aren't scared of Saban or Bama anymore. The good teams no longer dread lining up against Bama, they look forward to the test. Saban and Bama are still in good enough shape to win titles, but that doesn't mean you haven't peaked. It's only going to get harder from here on out. Parity is back.

I think losing eats at Nick Saban more than any other coach out there. Sure almost all of them "want" to be the GOAT. But Nick Saban lets it define him to his core. He puts winning the next play above almost everything else in his life. TBH Ms. Terry must really love him becuase it's amazing that he still has a family.
