Every week, former Alabama football coach Nick Saban is getting more and more comfortable on the set of ESPN's College Gameday. The fun-loving side of Nick Saban that most people have never seen, but Tide fans always knew was there under the surface is coming out, and he continues living his best life and enjoying his well-earned retirement from coaching after a legendary 17-year run in Tuscaloosa.

Whether it's singing along to "Country Roads" last week or "Wagon Wheel" this week, Saban is just having fun. His dynamic with Pat McAfee has been one of the most run parts of Saban's arrival on Gameday this year.

Whether it was the viral clip a couple weeks ago of Saban side-eying McAfee while he danced during a break, or this week when McAfee fed Saban a bite of a tomahawk steak, the two continue to display a chemistry that began last season when Saban appeared on McAfee's show once a week during the season.

As much as Alabama fans miss Saban walking the sidelines, it's impossible not to feel joy watching him having this much fun. He deserves to finally relax and enjoy being around the game of football without all the stresses that come with being a major college football head coach.

Here's hoping he keeps living his best life and we get more viral moments as the season goes on.
