    This was one of my favorite moments in the game. I knew we were phuking up his game plan when he did this. I really really enjoyed watching him writhe like that, it did my soul some good. haha!

    They kept showing this over and over last night. Bama had been running pick plays all night on us and the bama QB tries a long pass with the pick receiver wide open on the other side of the field. Saban lost it.

    That had nothing to do with us phucking up his game plan, that had everything to do with McCarron throwing to the wrong phucking receiver!:wave:

    That video of Saban is a good example of why I don't see him making it past 5 more years. He is going to burn himself out.

    i think he did it right. they were on their 20 you know. just as easily could have given lsu the ball at midfield after a pr with only 15 yds to get for a fg. really, it was a no win situation for him :)

    While that is true, I still believe at that point the frustration of not being able to successfully run his gameplan boiled over and culminated in Saban blowing a gasket.

    Straw that broke the camel's back perhaps......

    He's never coached anywhere longer than 5 years. I see him coaching maybe 2 years, going out with a whimper.

    I can't imagine it being enjoyable to play for Saban. With Miles, it seems like its like having your favorite uncle coaching your team. He can be stern, but he is mostly fun and you know he cares about every kid on the team.
