Nick Saban is not backing off after giving Vanderbilt some motivational material that it very much leaned on during its upset win over Alabama last Saturday.
Back in late September, Saban singled out Vanderbilt as the only SEC school without a significant home-field advantage in comments that were widely reported at the time. Those remarks did not take long to resurface after the Commodores stunned Alabama, 40-35, last Saturday, dealing the Crimson Tide their first defeat of the season.
Saban probably did not want those comments to become a major source of attention, but he is not backing off them. On Friday’s edition of “The Pat McAfee Show,” he was asked about those remarks and asserted that Saturday’s game had only proven him right.
