Alabama Football: Five Bold Predictions for Tide versus Blue Devils
By Ronald Moody
Expect an incomparable, ornery Nick Saban
When the cameras pan the sidelines, Alabama football players will be all smiles. However, Saban will remain in a scorched earth mood. Expect a browbeating halftime interview and a post-game press conference tirade about the team not playing up to its potential even though the Blue Devils will have suffered a devastating loss.
Every year, fans across the nation deem Alabama football dead, buried and gone. Saban will make sure that does not happen.
He is the greatest college football coach of all time. The 67-year-old coach will not take his foot off the pedal. Saban has started already with the suspension of four players before the openers.
Furthermore, complacency does not reside in his dictionary.
The time is now for Alabama football. Injuries have robbed the team of its depth. Pray the players can stay healthy through the season.
