Alabama was shocked at the Sugar Bowl when the upstart Buckeyes ruined the hopes and dreams of the Tide faithful. After the game Nick Saban must’ve had an outer-body experience because he actually said something so unlike him. He conceded that teams don’t need trophies to be winners.
"I don't think you necessarily have to get a trophy to be a winner." -Nick Saban

I get it that Saban didn’t want to kick his boys while they were down, but this is so unlike the Saban we’ve all come to know and love. Someone should check his temperature just in case.
