If's 3's your best rank for Saban, who 1-2?


Gus and Spurrier are much better in-game coaches. Sumlin and Richt are probably ahead of him also. saban isn't a great x's and o's guy. His talent is getting talent. He makes very questionable coaching decisions in tight games.

I'm about as big of a Georgia fan as they come, and you are dead wrong on this. What case could you possibly make for either of them to be a better in-game coach? And then how can you say Gus and Spurrier are much better? Gus' powerful offense only put up 13 points against Western Kentucky two years ago and Arkansas St. had much better talent.

ETA: and in case you forgot 3 years ago Gus was the offensive coordinator for a team that had games where they scored 10, 14, 7, and 14 points. He's a great coach, but don't look at a couple games Saban has had to try and discredit him as a great coach.
