The guys on the radio here in Chattanooga made reference to Gus being the best in the country (winning percentage) in one score (4 points or less) games. They said percentage of .812 is the best in the country. Said Saban was only 18-16 in the same kind of games at Bama (much better when including LSU and MSU record). That Bret is 0fer at UPig.
Can anyone find the article?

Losing the NC game stills hurts to my core......but that is very impressive.

Here is the BIASED article.... they vote Saban even though his record is worse than Gus or Les... ... CBS-BS
Best: Nick Saban, Alabama (24-15-1, .613). Saban will forever be remembered for adding one second onto the clock for the “Kick Six” loss to Auburn in 2013. Interestingly, he's only 15-13 in one-possession games at Alabama. But Saban's track record suggests he's the SEC's best bet when it's close, and he's a good example of how coaching reputations can be enhanced over time. Saban was 6-9-1 in games decided by four points or less from 1990 to 2000. He is 18-6 in those games since winning his first SEC title in 2001, the second-best record among active Power Five coaches over that period.
The rest: If you're judging by one-possession games, no one is better with a large body of work than Les Miles, who has a strong .673 winning percentage in those contests while at LSU and .638 for his career. … Auburn's Gus Malzahn leads current Power Five coaches in winning percentage for one-possession games (13-3, .813). He's probably due to see that mark slip some. … Arkansas' Bret Bielema has lost 11 straight one-possession games, dating to a Wisconsin win over Utah State on Sept. 15, 2012. Bielema began his career 21-12 in one-possession games. “It comes down to depth, experience and confidence,” he sai

Remember when our secondary guys tackled each other and Green ran for like 50 yards?

Comments like that are why it's sometimes believable that you don't like Auburn

Were you listening to Sport Talk (102.3) or Press Row (105.1)? I'd stick with Press Row because 1) both hosts are AU grads that work at the paper and 2) are far better informed on every sport other than nascar & WWE... but you may be more of a Sport Talk guy. They do, at least, have Mack McCarthy on for an hour once a week.

It was Press Row. I like them, except for the Mt Rushmore bit on Friday ( those are awful.) i knew they were both Auburn grads. I do miss SportsTalk on The Tiger in Auburn. Will Moon was well informed, those other dudes were ok.
Nascar is not a sport. Requires no athletic ability.
