Nick Saban didn't need a question to offer his thoughts on Tennessee coach Derek Dooley.
The Alabama coach handled it during the opening statement of his post-game press conference following the Crimson Tide's 44-13 victory.
It was Saban's third consecutive, 31-point victory over Dooley's Vols.
"I think Tennessee’s team really played hard," Saban said. "I think that Derek is doing a fantastic job. They have been better and better every year that we’ve played them. We were fortunate today that our defense played well enough to keep their high-powered offense to just 13 points.”

Saban is such a humble, classy man.

Bama squeaks out a win in the FG game, then continues to blow them out and Tenessee is playing better?
Is Saban hiring Dooley next year?

In other News, Saban says Chizik keeps getting better and better this season.

Dooly deserves another year. I am glad that Coach Saban can see that.

No but Miles may be available as a position coach if Mr Saban has any open spots.

Saban is just trolling

He's right. Tennessee is getting better. Might even be able to beat UK this year...

I'm confused, was Saban talking smack?

He might be lol.....Izzy Gould tweeted that after the game Saban flashed a "six" in reference to the current streak Bama has over the Vols. Wish their was a pic of that.
Also thought it was interesting that Saban used the term "grinded" in the after game interview..who knows...he might have been trolling then too getting ready to State this Sat

I know it's coach speak, but this is honestly condescending.

Saban recommended Dooley for the job. Dooley is from the Saban coaching tree and they are good friends. I don't think there is any subliminal message in his post game comments. I sincerely believe Saban wants Dooley to do well as a head coach, same for Muschamp, Fisher, and eventually Smart.

I'm sure he does, and he should. However, you pretty much have to have no respect for Tennessee to think Dooley is doing a good job.

Tennessee is a sleeping giant and Saban knows it, so he would like to see Dooley stay right where he is.

I'd say the same thing to keep Dooley around

Fortunately, this will not be the case.
