Not sure if Coach Saban has been out coached.

Many of the game Alabama has lost was by the other team getting lucky breaks (see AU 2010, 2013, Ole Miss 2014, 2015), a player or players just getting hot at the right time (see USC 2010, Florida 2008, Clemson 2016 or Ohio State 2014), or the Alabama team made mistakes on the field that cost them

I am not making excuses as the those teams deserved to win, and the ball takes funny bounces. Coach Saban does have a very good game plan going into the games, and has top assistant coaches. He is a far superior coach than any coach he faces on the other sideline, and continues to prove it. No coach works harder and spends more time looking at all aspects of the program than Coach Saban

There is a reason why Alabama has been involved with every national title since he started except 2007, 2010, and 2013

the answer is not Utah. We had half our o-line out for that game. That was bigger than coaching.

Oklahoma smashed Bama in the 2013 Cotton Bowl.

That was an embarrassment for the conference.
