Preseason Top 25 2020
Preseason Top 25 1982
Similarities include:
1. Guess who was # 3 in both polls?
2. Guess who was ridiculously overrated in both polls for those years?
3. Guess which SEC coach had won a National Championship Title a few years before his LAST YEAR (Coaching and being alive)?
4. Guess which coach died soon after finishing an 8-4 year (3-3 SEC) at age 69?
5. Which coach answered “Probably croak in a week” when asked what he would do after coaching? Then died 4 weeks (not 1) later.
6. How old will the 2020 Coach Of the Team ranked # 3 in the Preseason be this Fall?
7. Which coach lost 2 games having a Top 5 ranking in the preseason in 1981 and 2019?
8. Which coach was beaten by both Tennessee and LSU in his last year coaching in 1982?
9. Which coach could be beaten by both Tenn & LSU in 2020, given a reemergence of Tenn and the fact that LSU has beaten Alabama twice (wins in a row) every time it has had a National Championship in its history?
10. Which coaches father died at age 46?
Answers:
1. Alabama
2. Alabama
3. Paul Bryant won in 1978 (Saban 2017)
4. Paul Bryant died shortly after turning 69
5. Paul Bryant croaked 4 wks later (not 1)
6. Nick Saban turns 69 on Halloween
7. Both Paul Bryant and Nick Saban
8. Paul Bryant
9. Saban could lose to Tenn & LSU in 2020
10. Both Bryant and Saban’s Father died at 46 (heart attack)
According to similarities, Saban should croak in Feb 2021 after a 3 loss season in 2020!
Bryant Saban Similarities
Call it schadenfreude (shodden-froy-duh) on my part, but I want Saban around 10 mo’ yrs getting wheeled around in a shopping cart by Cedric Burns, the State Employee that served both Bryant and Saban.
Draw your own Conclusions!
When Alabama loses three games or four in 2020, there will be no more arguments about THE DECLINE

One guy smoked chesterfields and drank a good bit.
The other is probably physically fitter than 80% of the people on this board who are half his age.
Saban will die at some point, but I would be surprised if it was within the next 5 or even 10 years.

69 years old was alot older in 1982 than 2020.
Saban will coach and live alot longer than Bryant.

Good lord. I despise Phil Fulmer with every ounce of my being, but I would never make jokes or insinuations about his death.
You're a special kind of self-loathing and petty. Enjoy your title a bit before you have to start defending it.
