Saban even admitted he doesn't like to run up the score, so you know in a blow out that he's coaching to run out the clock. What's the point in staying and watching that? It is boring and it isn't worth watching any longer.

If you want to keep people in the stands then keep playing the game, even if it is with the scrubs in.

I see your point...but it still feels wrong to leave without cheering for your team's winning effort at the end of the game...and possibly even the chance to honor your opponents efforts (however overmatched they may have been). It's rude to dismiss someone's best efforts. It's basic sportsmanship not to turn up your nose at the losers.

I usually agree with Saban, but this is ridiculous. Bama is selling out every game. Fans are showing up to support the team every game. If it's a blowout, people are going to leave early. Get over it. I'm not going to stick around and watch 3rd stringers try not to score so they don't piss off Saban. I'd rather beat traffic or hit a bar up.

Saban knows the score. The intensity of his fan base's support is the only thing keeping his empire together. Once that fades away how can alabama ever compete? Soon college football will be like every other thing in the entire universe with texas dominating alabama.
