Tuscaloosa, AL ♦ Saban explains detailed Alabama game-week prep ♦
Nick Saban was more than halfway through last Thursday’s radio show when Harrison from Florence, Alabama called with a question.
He wanted to know how much game film and preparation goes into “feeling comfortable” with what any given opponent would do on a weekly basis. “Whew, boy,” Saban began in what was a four-minute stream-of-consciousness explanation of the Alabama coaching plan from the moment they step into the complex on Sunday afternoon. After going to church in the morning, Saban is in the office by noon to look at the previous day’s game film -- footage he said has to be graded before then. They’ll discuss offense, defense and special teams before Saban shifts the film study to the next opponent at 3 p.m. “And I will watch the other team for six hours,” Saban said, “probably until 8:30, 9:00 at night. |
