I don't think Saban ever hated Tennessee, LSU or Auburn. I think he understood some of the fanbase hate, but that was about it. He probably thought many of those people were crazy. He just did his job, developed game plans and recruited talent that allowed him to regularly beat those teams. Freeze's answer seems fine to me.

Somehow you made my point for me while countering my point because you missed my point.

Saban does not hate any of those teams. Saban definitely used hate for those weeks.

Not afraid to say I hate most UGA fans I've encountered. I despise UGA more than Bama. I'm a dadgum yankee from Buffalo, that's how I do sports and based from my experiences in Athens and in life. I've also worn jerseys to nfl games, a cardinal sin in the south that yall can get butthurt about. Also a Roman Catholic so some of the stuff is over the top to me but that's the deep south, that's Hugh, I got used to it at Auburn and I really don't care.

Still to this day when I say I went to Auburn, UGA fans and alum ask the HOPE scholarship bullshite. Regardless of not being from the south, that our undergrad engineering smokes theirs, and me being more successful than them. Shitbags. I knew when Kirby went there we were going to have our work cut out for us eventually.

I don't care how Hugh motivates the players or what he says about the fanbase. Just get us to the point where we're competitive with them, our players play with an edge to them, and if we ever get the chance to run it up on them, he better run it up. 2-3 years, fine but after that we better be there.

Oh, and Saban back in 2008 to his OL during the Iron Bowl:
quote:

We know Saban hates Auburn because a CBS sideline reporter told us so. During the 36-0 Iron Bowl beatdown in 2008 that ended Alabama's six-game losing streak in the series, she reported that Saban told his players, "Don't you know how much I hate those guys?"
