Saban’s Legacy

Wow. What a game! Georgia looked to have the game in hand going into the second half of the game with a 13 point lead. Another solid outing by Freshman Quarterback Jake Fromm gave the Georgia defense when seemed like plenty of breathing room when, a listless Alabama team, brought in their own Freshman Quarterback Tua Tagovailoa and put up 20 points in the second half. Before sealing the game with a 41 yard touchdown pass in overtime to give Nick Saban and Alabama another National Championship.

6 National Championships. 6. That Ties Saban legendary Alabama coach Paul “Bear” Bryant for the most championships in college football history. What else does Nick Saban have to prove? Where does he go from here? Amabama’s improbable overtime win in Monday’s National Championship game begs that question. I’m sure he’ll stick around until he wins that 7th championship, but after that? Who knows? Saban is currently 66 and if/when he wins a 7th title, that might be a perfect time to go out on top.

How many more years will Nick Saban coach at Alabama?
