On the one hand I will miss the near-guaranteed wins against a coach who also happens to beat Nick Saban more than anyone (including Kirby). On the other hand, I thoroughly enjoy watching turmoil at our rival programs. We’ve gotten a bumper crop of schadenfreude this weekend (not to mention the issues at UT and USCe) so let’s enjoy it while it’s fresh!

Monken does not have the sleaze factor that is required to be the HC of the barners. Freeze and Briles would be perfect fits. I’m sure they already inquired about Petrino’s availability. Another “fits like a glove” coaching match for them.

Gus is a sleaze but he was better at beating Bama than most other coaches in the SEC, even when he had inferior teams. I mean damn he beat Saban just last season. This seems shortsighted and dumb, even for Barners.

Outside of LSU’s season last year, are there are any current coaches in the SEC that have beaten Saban while in the SEC?

Nope. Unless Auburn is allowed to hire Freeze, the only coach in the SEC with a win against Saban right now is Coach O.
Gus owned HALF of the six losses Saban suffered in the SEC while at Bama.
Gus: 3
Freeze: 2
Richt: 1 (Saban’s first year at Bama)
O: 1
