The dude complained for a decade about not wanting to play against FCS and G5s. He would always have his pressers going "Why do we even play these games" as if he cared what is best for the game. Of course he did this all while doing zero to get Bama to play only P5s. We all damn well know if he had demanded it Bama would have done whatever he said.


Now when he hears they may go to 9 SEC games he pitches a fit b/c Bama's traditional rivals are "too hard" and it's just not fair that poor little Bama is going to have it so tough. Poor Nick just wants fairness.

Hopefully more people will now see that he's a hypocritical jackass who only cares about how rules effect him. The game will be far better off when he no longer has any sway over it's direction.

Jimbo needs to call another press conference.

There’s a reason why Jimbo said that he learned how to do things the right way from Bowden

He's definitely whining more now than before.

His reign is slipping & he knows it.

Coach Saban wants a level playing field and will not agree to anything less. You should know that by now. If 9 games create an unfair balance for ALABAMA then the SEC will hear it.

He changed his mind. People are allowed to do that one.

Yep. Probably not a popular opinion, but isn't there a slight chance that the SEC office reached out to someone of his current stature and asked him to voice support for the league's decision?

Wouldn't that be the best way to proceed from a PR (or otherwise a political-style) perspective, if you were attempting to unify its members?

I agree, but calling Saban a “despicable narcissist who thinks he’s god” is pure awesomeness. That shite had me in stitches.

We are stuck at 8 games because of a terrible tv deal and ESPN doesn’t want or can’t afford to pay more for it. Saban acknowledging that Alabama would be the only school with 3 Big 6 level perm opponents isn’t stopping it, nor did Saban ever lobby to keep it at 8 games.
