This is Saban's 4th National Championship...three at Alabama, 2009, 2011,2012...the other was at LSU in 2003. (Am I wrong?)
You’re correct - LSU was in 2003 (my how time flies). I guess I wasn’t paying attention to ‘Bama as closely the last 4 years after moving back to TX. It’ll be interesting to see what kind of win/loss records Saban will rack up over his career since he’s still pretty young.
Maybe it is safe to mention another great coach who went to 7 National Championship games in 9-years during one span at one school (winning his conference championship first earning a record of 4-3), and then made it to the NC Game three times winning one over a span of 5-years at another school, during a total span in coaching of 16-years in Div I Coaching (Record in Nation Championship Games 5-5. He coached about 21-years as a head coach - Who was he?
