Holy chit I just noticed that the last 4 yrs Saban is 48-6, in 1960-1964 Bryant was 48-6. It was 5 years but they played fewer games back then. Talk about history repeating itself.

Bryant won 6 NC's. I don't know if Saban can do it but he may be the only one in the next 50 years to give it a shot. Bryant won 5 SEC Champ's in the decade of the 70's, 13 SECC's in all. I don't think its even possible to win 10 SECC's now let alone 13. If you ever really wonder who the greatest of all time was that should leave you no doubt anymore.

Coach Bryant is the GOAT for sure. But in terms of national titles, I think Saban has the ability to get there and possibly in fewer years which would be an amazing feat itself just for the fact that its even harder to do it so consistently now with scholarship limitations and conferences splitting earnings evenly among teams helping teams to better their facilities and such.

If he doesn't catch Coach Bryant in NC's it's still totally possible for him to get to the number 2 spot which would give Alabama the 2 greatest coaches of all time.

But this is all speculation. He could leave tomorrow, but I think it's more possible than you might think.
