They say it will be Saban,,,,,, look at what he has done in two years. He is a great COACH. Do you think he will get it and do you think he will get it.

Now, get past your hate, and look at his performance.

I haven't even considered this...but I think you're right. Can't imagine who else in the conference has done more.

I think what Nutt has done with Ole Miss in just his first year is insane.. especially what they've done in the SEC after how atrocious they were last yr..

They improved by 5 wins, we improved by 6. Also, we're #1.

Nutt or Saban. Probably 1) Saban 2) Nutt. If Saban beats Florida then Saban for sure.

Saban and it's not even close. I think he win the national coach of the year.

I think Paul Johnson at Ga. Tech is the only other coach who may even be close.

1. Saban
2. Paul Johnson
3. Houston Nutt

All three coaches have taken players that were underperforming and made them better. I love that offense that PJ is running, but it's hard to not vote for 12-0 after less than 2 years on the job. Florida might win next week, but bet on Saban having the team prepared.

saban will win but nutt should win. I say for a few reasons:

1 Ole miss has less talent to work with this year

2 ole miss very nearly beat saban at bama with less talent on the field

3 saban will not look so good losing by 30 pts to UF this saturday on a neutral field when nutt beat them AT THE SWAMP.

Saban is a very good coach and turned the program around quicker than most thought, but preseason most thought bama would be 3rd in the west, no one even mentioned ole miss and they are 2nd this year. I would vote for nutt but saban will win b/c he is at bama.

Why so little consideration for Meyer? What if Urban destroys Saban's team next weekend? That makes them both 12-1 with Meyer having the head to head win.
