Funny moment just now in Alabama player interviews. I asked Jordan Battle about his favorite Nick Saban coaching saying. Innocent enough.
Battle: “Touch deez or suck on deez.”
We’ll probably never get him again after that but what a moment.
Seriously, this Alabama team’s story arc is the craziest I’ve seen. They were dead after losing to Texas. Even deader a week later at USF. Now they just ended No. 1 Georgia’s SEC record winning streak in the league title game. Insane.
From a box on the east side of Bryant-Denny Stadium, Nick Saban watches the Alabama football team take the field for the first time after retiring as head coach.
Three years ago today, Mac Jones drawing up plays in pencil as the head coach of a sorority intramural coach. He’s the New England Patriots starting QB now.
If you’re an Alabama looking to feel underappreciated, kicker Will Reichard wasn’t a first- or second-team All-SEC pick. He didn’t miss a kick in 11 games.
