Saban is absolutely incapable of admitting that ANYTHING is ever his fault.

@elposter: "He says this kind of shite all the time."

This is it. At LSU there wasn't a week that he didn't backhand the fans about some unrealistic expectation or doomsday thought process.

But he generally is right about it: at MSU, LSU and Bama he pegs the vocal minority of fans.

It's never Nicks fault. Ask the Dolphins? Ask LSU fans? Bama fans are next-Saban can't make himself happy. He'll go pro again after telling Bama he's not leaving. Great coach; scumbag of a man.

That's a good point. It's regular season college football game. The Governor takes time to comment publicly?

He's a great recruiter, a great teacher, a great administrator, etc.., he is not an elite gameday coach. Not by any stretch. He is an average in-game head coach. But the other things he does on an elite level usually cover up for his lack of in-game instinct.

Yep. This is nothing new. He was a lot worse about it after the Sugar Bowl in 2008.


He'll be alright this is nothing like when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor after the ULM loss.

Why do you people get your panties in a wad over Saban so much?

Did anybody see the thread from the douche bag who wanted to write the coaches a letter detailing what he thinks the problem is? See the governor of Alabama bitching about the 4th quarter play calling? Anybody notice the crazy drunks screaming through their monitor screens about frick everything Alabama because we lost?

Man has a point by saying some people expect too much. At the beginning of the season this was a rebuilding year for the defense, lost something like 8 or 9 starters. Plenty of people predicting a minimum of 3 losses. Now we're at the twelfth week, with only one loss and an easy, clear road to the SECCG and everybody's been bitching and moaning for the past week.

Everyone knows he wasn't talking about the fans. This was meant for Gov. Bentley. He should have kept his yap shut second guessing his play calling.

Many of you keep saying how the Governor was bitching. I must have heard a different interview because what I heard was "I would have run the ball 4 times" He was asked a question,and gave 1 answer. The same answer all of YOU have been saying. He didn't call a press conference for cryin out loud,and criticize the bama program. Any of ya'll put in same circumstances,asked the same question woulda said the same damn thing.

Why did you reply to me, but quote a post I didn't make?

Sure I said the gov was bitching about it, and I definitely agree with his opinion, but my point was more to illustrate the fact that in no other state would the governor even be asked about a football game like that.

Which actually shows some deep seated resentment - that Saban(a good coach) is coaching at a school that you consider a rival. So which school are you a fan - Auburn or Tennessee?

If you say LSU I recommend counseling and drug therapy. The normal period to get over a remote rejection issue has expired.

Seriously, Puffy talk to someone. After all it's just a game.

This is nothing unusual for Nick Saban. Nothing at all. He does this all the freakin' time guys. So, why is this thread still going?

He'll get the same ole responses from the media, the same from other fans saying he is leaving, and the same from the Alabama nation.

Geez. Have you guys not learned by now? Well, maybe not A&M fans. They just don't know and act like this is some first.

Your entire post shows you still have issues over Sabans departure.

I'm not certain which fanbase is worse. That small percentage of deranged ALabama fans or that small percentage of deranged LSU fans.

You and Puffy and several others on this board both need to talk to someone before you put a puppy in the microwave or stab your wife. Its just a football game.
