Saban was complaining last year that students weren't coming to the home games.
It does kind of suck when you've been so good for so long, that it essentially becomes a "one game season" and all the other games are just thought of as a prelude.
Exactly. The way I see it is, it’s the beginning of the end for the Gump’s domination. Kind of like the way the Seminoles deteriorated after dominating the weak ACC for so long. At the time almost all of the Noles’ games were boring. Now they’re a dumpster fire.
