People are starting to think the game may be passing saban by


The same was said about Bear Bryant after going 6-5 and 6-5-1 in 1969 and 1970. He made many changes to his team during the offseason and proceeded to dominate the 1970s.

And if being #1 and 11-0 going into the final week of the season is Saban's version of having the game pass him by, I'm completely fine with that.

Bobby Bowden was the most revered coach in college football. He went from averaging 11 wins a season to averaging 7 wins a season. When the game passed him by, it took several years for people to realize it. They had top 5 recruiting class after top 5 recruiting class. Nobody thought it was possible for him to fall like he did. If we don't know our history, we are doomed to repeat it. Gus going in dry!
